Inter- And Intra-Rater Reliabililty Of A Modified Approach To Scoring The Balance Error Scoring System Bess In Undistracted And Distracted Conditions, Jacob Ryan Pierce
All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023
Context: We have developed a modified approach to scoring balance errors with the Balance Error Scoring System (BESS) by eliminating two of the six original error criteria.
