of a mental, behavior and mood section, an activities of daily living section, a motor
examination, and questions concerning any complications with the patient's current
therapy as well as modified versions of the Hoehn and Yahr Staging assessment and
the Schwab and England Activities of Daily Living Scale. Each question is either scored
with a 0 for a 'no' response and 1 for a 'yes' response or with a 0-4 point scale.;
