Validation of the Moroccan Arabic version of the Token Test

The aim of this study was to translate and cross-culturally adapt the Token Test. Fifty-four participants were recruited to evaluate the validity ratio (CVR) of the Token Test. A one-way between-subjects ANOVA was conducted to compare MATT scores of 25 non-brain-damaged individuals, 18 individuals with aphasia, and 11 individuals with epilepsy. The analysis showed a significant difference at the p < 0.01 level for the three groups [F(2, 51) = 72.31, p < 0.01]. Auditory comprehension raw score was significantly correlated with the Token Test score (r(18) = 0.836, p < 0.01). The aphasic group had higher variance in terms of Token Test scores. The results support the appropriateness of using MATT to assess language skills in Moroccan Arabic-speaking subjects with cognitive deficiencies.
