Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The present study is part of an international program and deals with the translation and validation program for the Italian version of the MDS-UPDRS.

The program will be articulated in three steps:

* Phase I: translation and back-translation of the MDS-UPDRS in Italian (completed)
* Phase II: Cognitive testing. This step is aimed at a preliminary testing of a subset of potentially culturally sensitive items in a limited set of PD patients (approximately 10). Should this phase identify issues in the understanding and ease of use of some items a revised translation of some individual items might be envisaged.
* Phase III: large validation testing: this phase will involve 350 PD patients from 12-14 Italian PD centres.

The IRIS protocol deals with phase II and III of the program.
