Patient self-report
Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: (Xu et al., 2015; n = 86; mean age = 13.5 (1.5) years; wearing a brace > 12 h/d for 3 months; mean Cobb angle = 30.5 degrees; Chinese sample)
SEM for entire group (n = 86): 1.01 (calculated from RMD Statistics Calculator)
Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: (Xu et al., 2015)
MDC for entire group (n = 86): 2.79 (calculated from RMD Statistics Calculator)
Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: (Xu et al., 2015)
Excellent test-retest reliability: (ICC = 0.85)
Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: (Misterska, Głowacki, & Harasymczuk, 2009; n = 35; median age = 14.8 (1.5) years; wearing a brace 14.9 h/d for 16.1 mos; median Cobb's angle = 27.8 degrees; Polish sample)
