Author(s): Thomas A Koc*, H Jim Phillips, Deborah A DeLuca and Annette Kirchgessner
Level of evidence: A case control study.
Objective: The purpose of this study is to determine the intra-rater reliability of the Clavicular Jump Test (CJT).
Design: This is a case control one-group pretest-posttest (repeated measures) study.
Methods: 96 participants with an average age of 28 (± 4. 78) volunteered to participate in this research project. A
single examiner, blinded to the identity of the participants, conducted the CJT on both shoulders, then repeated the
test on each participant in a random order.
Results: The results of a pearson chi-square test of the CJT of trial 1 and trial 2 on the right side indicated a
statistically significant agreement, χ2 (1)=44. 29, p<0. 05 with kappa statistic (k) of the CJT of trial 1 and tr.. View More»
