This new Arabic version of the BICAMS shows initial good psychometric properties. While good evidence of VMAT's reliability was shown in the healthy participants, less test-retest reliability in this tool was seen in the MS group, and partial criterion-related validity was evident. This renders further examination of the VMAT. We provide regression-based norms for a Lebanese sample and encourage the use of this battery in both research and clinical settings.
