Internal Consistency of Manual Muscle Testing Scores
Copyright policy )Internal Consistency of Manual Muscle Testing Scores
The internal consistencies of manual muscle test scores of the actions of three upper and three lower extremity muscles were examined among 37 home care patients. The correlations between scores of specific pairs of actions ranged from .01 to .88. Cronbach alphas ranged from .59 to .88. Manual scores of limb muscle strength, therefore, appear to possess suitable internal consistency.
