About this trial
One of the most commonly used screening tests for the mental status of adults is the Standardized Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE). The MMSE is designed to screen for cognitive dysfunction, assess the severity of impairments, and identify changes over time. In the country of the researchers, the Turkish adaptation of the MMSE for children has not been done and the validity and reliability of the Turkish version has not been demonstrated. This paper aims to investigate the pschiatric features of the MMSE for Turkish pediatric population.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Modified Mini Mental State Examination
Its scoring is between 0-12. For attention; it consists of 2 sub-items as counting forward and backward. The total score is between 0-7. For sensory perception; the child will be asked to name 3 known objects (pen, watch, glasses). Its scoring is between 0-3. For recall; the child will be asked to show and explain the previous 3 objects (pen, watch, glasses). Its scoring is between 0-3. For language; first, the child will be asked to name the 5 determined body parts (hand, foot, knee, nose, ear), second, they will be asked to carry out a 3-stage command, third, they will be asked to repeat a tongue twister, fourth, they will be asked to read and apply the shown text (close their eyes), fifth, they will be asked to write their name and finally they will be asked to draw the shown shape. Scoring ranges from 0 to 12. The highest score that can be obtained from the Modified MMSE is 37. Application time is between 8-15 minutes.
Secondary outcomes
Colored Progressive Matrices Test (RPM)
In each matrix consisting of meaningless shapes in parts called A, AB and B, there is a shape with a missing part. It will be asked to find the correct one from the 6 options that complete the missing part in the bottom part. It will receive 1 point for each correct answer.
Functional Independence Measure for Children (WeeFIM)
It consists of 6 sections including self-care (eating, washing hands and face, brushing teeth, toileting, bathing and dressing), sphincter control (bladder and bowel habits), transfer (transfer to toilet, shower and chair), locomotion (walking, crawling, going up and down stairs), communication (understanding and expressing) and social status (social relationships, problem solving and memory) and contains a total of 18 items. The family will be asked to score each item in these sections from 1 to 7 according to whether the individual received help while performing the function, whether he/she did it on time or whether an assistive device was required. The "Self-Care" subscale will be used in this study. The child's level of independence in daily life will be recorded by asking 6 questions here.
