This review aimed (i) to identify patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) on DT and evaluate their measurement properties and (ii) to investigate the usage of PROMs for the evaluation of DT difficulties. A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed and Web of Science from inception to March 2022. Methodological quality was evaluated using the COSMIN checklist. Six studies examined the measurement properties of DT PROMs. Nine studies used DT PROMs as the outcome measure. Five PROMs were identified, including the Divided Attention Questionnaire (DAQ), Dual-Task-Impact on Daily-life Activities Questionnaire (DIDA-Q), a Questionnaire by Cock et al. (QOC), Dual-Tasking Questionnaire (DTQ), and Dual-Task Screening-List (DTSL). Fourteen measurement properties were documented: five (35.7%) rated quality as \u201csufficient\u201d, six (42.8%) \u201cinsufficient\u201d, and three (21.4%) \u201cindeterminate\u201d. The quality of evidence for each measurement property ranged from very low to high. While DT performance is investigated in many populations, the use of PROMs is still limited, although five instruments are available. Currently, due to insufficient data, it is not possible to recommend a specific DT PROM in a specific population. An exception is DIDA-Q, which has the highest quality of measurement properties in people with multiple sclerosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph192215029","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,16]],"date-time":"2022-11-16T02:27:34Z","timestamp":1668565654000},"page":"15029","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Patient-Reported Outcome Measures for Assessing Dual-Task Performance in Daily Life: A Review of Current Instruments, Use, and Measurement Properties"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"19","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3086-8102","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zuhal","family":"Abas\u0131yan\u0131k","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"REVAL Rehabilitation Research Center, Faculty of Rehabilitation Sciences, Hasselt University, Martelarenlaan 42, Agoralaan 1, 3500 Hasselt, Belgium"},{"name":"Graduate School of Health Sciences, Dokuz Eyl\u00fcl University, Izmir 35220, Turkey"},{"name":"Department of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation, Faculty of Health Sciences, Izmir Katip Celebi University, Izmir 35620, Turkey"},{"name":"Universitair MS Centrum, 3500 Hasselt, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7317-2431","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Renee","family":"Veldkamp","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"REVAL Rehabilitation Research Center, Faculty of Rehabilitation Sciences, Hasselt University, Martelarenlaan 42, Agoralaan 1, 3500 Hasselt, Belgium"},{"name":"Universitair MS Centrum, 3500 Hasselt, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amber","family":"Fostier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"REVAL Rehabilitation Research Center, Faculty of Rehabilitation Sciences, Hasselt University, Martelarenlaan 42, Agoralaan 1, 3500 Hasselt, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carolien","family":"Van Goubergen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"REVAL Rehabilitation Research Center, Faculty of Rehabilitation Sciences, Hasselt University, Martelarenlaan 42, Agoralaan 1, 3500 Hasselt, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7999-0868","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alon","family":"Kalron","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Therapy, Sackler Faculty of Medicine, School of Health Professions, Tel-Aviv University, Tel-Aviv 69978, Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5680-5495","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Peter","family":"Feys","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"REVAL Rehabilitation Research Center, Faculty of Rehabilitation Sciences, Hasselt University, Martelarenlaan 42, Agoralaan 1, 3500 Hasselt, Belgium"},{"name":"Universitair MS Centrum, 3500 Hasselt, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1912","DOI":"10.1007\/s00415-020-09759-7","article-title":"A Wearable Sensor Identifies Alterations in Community Ambulation in Multiple Sclerosis: Contributors to Real-World Gait Quality and Physical Activity","volume":"267","author":"Hillel","year":"2020","journal-title":"J.
