Ashworth Scale /Modified Ashworth Scale

Author of Tool:

Richard Bohannon PT, PhD and Melissa Smith, PT

Primary use / Purpose:

At its initial stages, the Ashworth Scale was designed to examine the effects of antispasticity drugs on spasticity in Multiple Sclerosis (MS). The purpose of the Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) was to measure spasticity in patients with lesions of the central nervous system.

Background:

In the original Ashworth Scale, resistance to passive movement about a joint with varying degrees of velocity is measured on a scale of 0 (no resistance) to 4 (rigidity). In the modified Ashworth Scale, a 1+ scoring category is added to indicate resistance through less than half of the movement (Bohannon & Smith, 1987).

Psychometrics:

Psychometric evaluation of the MAS has discussed in Blackburn et al. (2002) and Gregson et al. (1999; 2000). 82(1): 25.
