Samuel D'Emanuele; Francesca Nardello; Fabrizio Garau; Diego Campaci; Federico Schena; Cantor Tarperi – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2025
The agreement between a wearable inertial sensor (GYKO, G) and the force platform (P) was assessed by evaluating "test-retest" and "inter-rater reliability." Thirty-eight subjects were enrolled; the selected indices of balance were investigated over foot positions and (un)stable conditions. Intraclass correlation coefficient…

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…

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…

Stearns, Jodie A.; Wohlers, Brendan; McHugh, Tara-Leigh F.; Kuzik, Nicholas; Spence, John C. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2019
The reliability and validity of the PLAY"fun" and PLAY"basic" tools were assessed. The PLAY"fun", PLAY"basic", Canadian Agility and Movement Skill Assessment (CAMSA) obstacle course, and Physical Activity Questionnaire for Children (PAQ-C) were administered to children (aged 8-14 years) in two remote…

Rogers, Simon A.; Hassmén, Peter; Hunter, Adam; Alcock, Alison; Crewe, Stewart T.; Strauts, Janina A.; Gilleard, Wendy L.; Weissensteiner, Juanita R. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2019
This study aimed to assess the validity and reliability of jump assessments using the "MyJump2" application. Eleven junior athletes (15 ± 1.4 years) performed five countermovement (CMJ) and drop jumps (DJ) measured simultaneously by a force platform and "MyJump2." Additionally, intra- and inter-day reliability was assessed over…

van Kernebeek, Willem G.; de Schipper, Antoine W.; Savelsbergh, Geert J. P.; Toussaint, Huub M. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2018
In The Netherlands, the 4-Skills Scan is an instrument for physical education teachers to assess gross motor skills of elementary school children. Little is known about its reliability. Therefore, in this study the test-retest and inter-rater reliability was determined. Respectively, 624 and 557 Dutch 6- to 12-year-old children were analyzed for…

Weaver, R. Glenn; Webster, Collin A.; Erwin, Heather; Beighle, Aaron; Beets, Michael W.; Choukroun, Hadrien; Kaysing, Nicole – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2016
The System for Observing Fitness Instruction Time (SOFIT) is commonly used to measure variables related to physical activity during physical education (PE). However, SOFIT does not yield detailed information about teacher practices related to children's moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA). This study describes the modification of SOFIT…
