Significant correlations between FACT- B and other measures also indicate that this scale has concurrent validity and discriminative. The values of fit indices were also moderate. Conclusion: The Persian version of the FACT-B scale is valid and reliable and, therefore, the scale can be used in research and clinical settings to assess health-related quality of life in Iranian patients with breast cancer to be used.
