The scale consists of 21 questions with 4 options, each corresponding to 0-3 points, and the patient is asked to choose the appropriate sentence according to his condition in the last week. mood, pessimism, sense of failure, dissatisfaction, sense of guilt, sense of punishment, self-hatred, self-blame, desire for self-punishment, crying spells, irritability, social introversion, indecisiveness, deterioration of body perception, determination of workability, sleep disorders, 21 symptoms and behaviors including fatigue, fatigue, decreased appetite, weight loss, somatic complaints and loss of libido are questioned.

The scale includes a total of 15 questions scored between +3 (best aspect) and -3 (worst aspect). It is a Likert-type scale with questions from 1 to 7 according to the answers that are affected by creation or negative effects. The worst affected person can get 15 points and the best affected person can get 105 points. As the score rises, it takes shape as "good influence", and as the score decreases, it takes shape as "bad influence".
Disability status assessment.	6 weeks	A single EDSS score between 0-10 is determined according to the scores obtained from the functional systems. While 0 points on the scale indicate normality, 10 points indicate the way of death when MS is sufficient. In the scale, the first score that can be obtained after 0 is 1. It is a beloved scale to see if there is an index in case of disability.

It was developed to evaluate pain-related limitation in people with acute, subacute, or chronic low back pain. It includes 1 item related to pain and 9 items related to activities of daily living (personal care, lifting, walking, sitting, sanding, sleep, sexual life, social life and travel). Each item is measured on a 6-point rank scale between 0 and 5 points according to the scenarios it contains. At the end of the survey, the scores are summed and the percentage value is calculated for the total score.

BFS units are in 8 subgroups: physical health, limitation due to physical devices, pain sensation, fatigue, social functionality, health perception, health distress, sexual functionality. BFS and BMS scores, which are the two main groups of the MSQOL-54 scale, are scored between 0-100. The high score obtained from the scale determines the goodness of life quality.
