d. The Activities-specific Balance (ABC) scale is a popular and subjective questionnaire to assess balance confidence and the risk of fall in people with balance problems.34 The ABC scale consisted of 16 items with a total score between 0% (not confident) to 100% (completely confident), where higher scores equate to higher balance confidence and vice versa. The Arabic version of the ABC scale is reliable and valid in the assessment of balance confidence. |
