With the Alusti Test, which is created by Josu Alustiza Navarro considering the existing tests, the physical performances of geriatricians with different levels and cognitive capacity are evaluated in a very short time and without tiring the patient. There are 2 versions, short and full. The short version is applicable to 100% of the large population, including "and cases of cognitive impairment. With the full version, it has nearly 85-90% applicability."

However, there is no study regarding the English version and validity reliability of the 'Alusti Test.

For this purpose, it is to investigate the English validity and reliability of the functional assessment scale of physical performance (Alusti Test) for the geriatric population and to provide a measurement tool to be used in the English literature to the sciences who want to work in this field.
