Aislinn Ganci; Miran Qazizada; Brianna Fehr; Ana Vucenovic; Edmond Lou; Eric Parent – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2024
Spinal alignment can be assessed without radiation using three-dimensional ultrasound imaging (3DUS). Reliable measurements could inform the ideal arm position for scoliosis radiographs. This study determined the inter-evaluator reliability of axial vertebral rotation (AVR) measurements and sagittal curve angles in healthy females from 3DUS spinal…

Maïano, Christophe; Morin, Alexandre J. S.; April, Johanne; Webster, E. Kipling; Hue, Olivier; Dugas, Claude; Ulrich, Dale – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2022
The objective was to assess the psychometric properties of a French-Canadian version of the third edition of the Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD-3). Participants were 127 French-speaking Canadian children. Results supported the validity-reliability of a bifactor exploratory structural equation modeling representation of the TGMD-3.…

Frehlich, Levi; Blackstaffe, Anita; McCormack, Gavin R. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2020
The Physical Activity Neighborhood Environment Scale (PANES) has been used internationally; however, PANES properties have not been assessed in all geographical contexts. Our objectives were to assess the reliability and validity of an online and paper version of the PANES in Canadian adults. Reliability was estimated using intraclass correlation…

Miller, Matthew B.; Jimenez-Garcia, John Alexander; Hong, Chang Ki; DeMont, Richard – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2020
The Child-Focused Injury Risk Screening Tool (ChildFIRST) is a process-based assessment including 10 movement skills with 4 associated evaluation criteria. The ChildFIRST has been validated by a group of experts to evaluate movement competence and injury risk in 8-12-year-olds. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the reliability of the…

Carson, Valerie; Hesketh, Kylie D.; Rhodes, Ryan E.; Rinaldi, Christina; Rodgers, Wendy; Spence, John C. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2017
This study examined the psychometric properties of a questionnaire developed with the guidance of the socialization model of child behaviour to understand modifiable correlates of toddlers' physical activity and sedentary behaviour. Findings are based on 118 parents (33.7 ± 4.9 years; 86% female) of toddlers (19.3 ± 2.7 months; 48% female) from…
