AB  - Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of motor freezing blocks on balance control, activity-specific balanceconfidence (ABC), and quality of life in patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD).Methods: The freezing of gait questionnaire (FOG) was employed to categorize the participants into groups according tothe presence (group 1) or absence (group 2) of motor freezing blocks. The balance of the participants was evaluatedusing the Tinetti Balance and Walking, and the Tandem Stance and Walking test. Activity confidence was assessed usingthe ABC scale, while quality of life was evaluated using the Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire-8 (PDQ-8).Results: A total of 74 individuals with PD were included in the study, comprising groups 1 (n = 38) and 2 (n = 36). Acomparison of the Tinetti balance and walking score, Tandem stance and step score, ABC-scale, and PDQ-8 scores ofgroup 1 and group 2 revealed a significant difference between the groups (p
