==ملخص البحث باللغة الاصلية== Orienta'on, Memory, Verbal Fluency, Language, and Visuospa'al Abili'es) are commonly impaired in demen'as. OBJECTIVES: To describe the qualita've process of selec'on, transla'on and cultural adapta'on of ACE-‐III for use in the Egyp'an-‐Arabic speaking popula'on. METHOD: First, the ques'onnaire was translated into Arabic, and then back-‐translated into English. The process was then repeated un'l a consensus was reached about the op'mal transla'on. In addi'on, we modified the test to culturally adapt it to the Egyp'an popula'on. We modified the following parts of the ACE III: LeTer fluency, Name and address registra'on task, Knowledge memory task, Language repeon tasks, Picture naming and recogni'on, Reading, Recogni'on of camouflaged pictures. The modified ACE III was then piloted on 20 subjects with no complaint of cogni've impairment. RESULTS: Pilot subjects included 13 males and 7 female. The mean age of the subjects was 42.85 (SD=18.32) years. Performance on the culturally-‐adopted items was as follows: on LeTer fluency subjects generated an average of 9.95 (SD=3.22) words per minute. Category fluency subjects generated an average of 31 (SD=15.7) words per minute. On comprehension, proverb repeon and reading fragmented leTers, the subjects made no errors. 85% (n=17) of the subjects made no errors on knowledge task. On word repeon, 95% (n=19) of the subjects made no errors. Of the 6 culturally-‐adapted pictures for the Egyp'an popula'on, 100% (n=20) of the subjects were able to correctly iden'fy the lion, Aud (Lute), and Lamp; 95% (n=19) of the subjects were able to correctly iden'fy a giraffe; 90% (n=18) of the subjects were able to correctly iden'fy a parrot; and only 55% were able to correctly iden'fy a violin. CONCLUSION: Egyp'an Arabic m-‐ACE III appears to be culturally equivalent aher all forms of biases or social norms specific to the culture of origin have been removed.
