Note: All measures utilized in the study have been adapted for native Greek speaking adults and demographically corrected normative data have been published (with the exception of the BVMT-R that has been adapted in Greece but normative data are not yet available). The BVMT-R and SDMT have been validated in Greek MS patients. SRT: Selective Reminding Test [24] normative study; BVMT-R: Brief Visuospatial Memory Test-Revised [25] validated in the Greek BICAMS study; SDMT: Symbol Digit Modalities Test [26] normative study and [25] validated in the Greek BICAMS study; Greek Verbal Fluency Test (phonemic and semantic fluency) [27] normative study; SNST: Stroop Neuropsychological Screening Test [28] normative study; TMT-A and TMT-B: Trail Making Test Parts A and B [29, 30] normative studies.
