The reliability and validity of the Japanese version of the ADL-focused Occupation-based Neurobehavioral Evaluation (A-ONE J) was examined. A-ONE J can be used to evaluate both performances of activities of daily living (ADL) tasks (5 domains 22 items) and neurobehavioral problems that interfere with ADL task performances among clients with neurological disorders. Inter-rater and intra-rater reliability were examined among 20 stroke clients, and we found a high kappa coefficient. Concurrent validity was tested with 36 stroke clients. We found moderate and high correlation coefficients between A-ONE J and ADL evaluation, as well as between A-ONE J and neuropsychological tests. Our recommendations for future studies include expansion of composition, including more diverse diagnostic categories other than stroke.
