title: The Spinal Cord Injury Spasticity Evaluation Tool: A Persian adaptation and validation study.
abstract: To adapt the Spinal Cord Injury Spasticity Evaluation Tool (SCI-SET) into the Persian language (SCI-SETp) and to examine the reliability and validity of the SCI-SETp in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI).
  
  
  
  A cross-sectional and prospective cohort validation study.
  
  
  
  University Neurological Physiotherapy Clinic.
  
  
  
  Adult patients with SCI.
  
  
  
  SCI-SET.
  
  
  
  There was no missing data. No floor or ceiling effect was observed. Cronbach's α coefficient was 0.862. Factor analysis suggested 1 factor structure (Eigenvalue = 8.49) explained 24.27% of the total variance. The ICCagreementfor test-retest reliability was 0.84. The standard error of measurement and the smallest detectable change was 0.30 and 0.82, respectively. The divergent relationships demonstrated the SCI-SETp uniqueness construct.
  
  
  
  The results support the reliability and validity of the SCI-SETp for assessing the impact of spasticity on daily life of patients with SCI.
