This study was conducted to determine the psychometric properties of the Persian version of an AADL scale in Iranian older adults. A total of 237 males and females aged over 60 years old were recruited. Personal information questionnaires, the CASP-19 Quality of Life, and AADL questionnaires were used for data collection. SPSS 24 and IBM AMOS 24 were used for data processing and analysis. Three factors that had eigenvalues higher than one were extracted, which explained 51.2 % of the total variances. The Cronbach α of the total score was 0.76, and it was >0.64 for each extracted factor. The goodness of fit indices indicated an acceptable fit to the data in confirmatory factor analysis. The culturally modified Persian version of the AADL scale has acceptable psychometric properties and is proper for evaluating the advanced activities of daily living in the Iranian population.
