“…[7][8][9][10] One study using the Pfeffer scale 7 found an additive effect between functional scores and the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) for the diagnosis of AD. The Disability Assessment for Dementia was also adapted for Brazil 11 and seems to be useful for the characterization of functionality in frontotemporal dementia and AD, assessing both BADLs and IADLs as well as leisure activities, although these two groups do not show differences in functional performance. 12 The BADL index was developed by Sidney Katz in 1963 13 to study the results of treatment and prognosis among older and chronically ill people.…”

“…Guillemin, Bombardier, and Beaton 24 suggested the need for the adaptation of subjective and personal scales and questionnaires within the Brazilian cultural context, with semantic validation, as was accomplished with other scales 25,26 . Th e 32 items of the MFM deal with objective commands of positioning, movements and transfers, hence actions that do not entail diffi cult interpretation or semantic variations.…”
