Measurement Of Joint Motion A Guide To Goniometry

Key differences between 5th and 4th editions

• Time lapse between current and previous editions: 7 years (2016 vs 2009).
• The book was originally issued in 1985.
• In the Fifth Ed. new tables and text include latest research findings on the reliability of the assesment of joint motion with goniometers, inclinometer, and mobile applications. The tables now provide measure of absolute reliability, such as Standard Error of Measurement and Minimal Detectable Change.
• Chapter 3 presents new exercises on calculation of the Standard error of Measurement, Minimal Detectable Change, and the Pearson Product-Moment Correlation Coefficient, Standard Error of Measurement, and Minimal Detectable Change
• Chapter 5 has additional topics on elbow flexors and elbow extensors.
• Completely new appendix B Summary Guides for Measuring Range of Motion.
• Over 80 new illustrations.
