Reliability and Minimal Detectable Change Values for Performance-Based Measures of Physical Functioning in the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging
Abstract
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to determine the relative and absolute reliabilities of 5 key performance-based measures of physical function in the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA).
METHODS: An age-stratified subsample of 147 participants from the CLSA who were undergoing their 3-year data collection visit participated in 2 repeat visits (within 1 week). Participants underwent tests of grip strength, 4-m gait speed, Timed Up …
