Determining test–retest reliability and minimal detectable change (MDC) for both motor and cognitive elements within a dual-task paradigm among healthy athletes will help clinicians interpret postinjury performance. For example, using the Balance Error Scoring System

) exceeds the minimal detectable change (MDC) of the test. 17 However, despite widespread use, no data are available to report the reliability and MDC of CMJ, IABS, IADS, or IPCS measures in EPL under 18 (U-18) and under 23 (U-23) football players. These data will help to improve decision making relating

previous research 7 and were categorized based on the following definitions: ≤.49 as poor, .50–.74 as moderate, .75–.90 as good, and >.90 as excellent. 15 The standard error of measurement (SEM) and minimal detectable change (MDC) were calculated using the following equations: SEM = S D × 1 − ICC ; MDC
Psychometric Properties of the Hindi Version of SPADI in Overhead Athletes With Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

SPADI 15 ( Appendix ). Therefore, the purpose of this research was to evaluate the psychometric properties which comprise reliability (internal consistency, test-retest, and composite), validity (convergent and structural), minimal detectable change (MDC 95 ), and partial confirmatory factor analysis

postseason COP differences. The SEM was calculated as SD × √1-ICC, 12 and the minimal detectable change (MDC) was calculated as 1.96 × SEM × √2. 13 The SEM is defined as the estimate of the variability between the score obtained and the participants “true” score. 12 The MDC reflects the smallest change in

provides the expected amount that the outcome variable will vary across repeated testing occasions due to error ( 36 ). In turn, the minimal detectable change (MDC) is typically calculated alongside the SEM ( 2 ) and is regarded as the smallest change between trials that should be considered a true change

Study Aims Using data from a larger longitudinal study on the health and social behaviors of female student-athletes, the study aims were twofold: to examine the test-retest reliability and minimal detectable change of the MPDG subscales at two time
