by personalizing a generic model using linear scaling methods, 5 functional scaling methods, 6 or statistical shape models. 7 Due to time constraints in the clinical workflow and limited joint range of motion in many patients, linear scaling methods are typically used to personalize

In 1726 Jonathan Swift, in his novel Gulliver’s Travels , embarked on one of the earliest attempts at biological scaling. When Gulliver’s ship flounders he is washed ashore on the island country of Lilliput where the natives were no more than 6 inches tall, one-twelfth of Gulliver’s height. When

measure variables that can predict referee retention. A few referee specific scales do exist. The Soccer Officials Stress Survey ( Taylor & Daniel, 1987 ) and the Basketball Officials Sources of Stress Inventory ( Kaissidis & Anshel, 1993 ) were precursors to Anshel et al.’s ( 2013 ) Sources of Acute

Accordingly, the purpose of the current study was to develop valid and reliable scale items to measure team representation. Study Scope Sports teams can represent

methodologies to assess motivationally relevant behaviors of the coach or teacher (for a recent review, see Smith, Quested, Appleton, & Duda, 2016 ). However, there has been a relative dearth of such approaches in the exercise domain. Self-determination theory-based observation scales have been designed to

of greatest dysfunction (ie, right or left) for each motion using a 0 (no problems at all) to 100 (the worst) scale. The motion with the greatest impairment/imbalance (ie, highest score) is commonly treated first on the patient’s “good” side (ie, the side without impairment/imbalance). 1 , 4 , 5

with growth and maturation has been persistently misinterpreted through the uncritical use of ratio scaling of data (mL·kg −1 ·min −1 ). More appropriate means of accommodating body size were well-established in the general biological sciences (eg, 19 ) before the initial studies of children’s aerobic

numerous individual differences among students. The existing scales (e.g., Benson & El-Zahhar, 1994 ; Spielberger, 1980 ) assess test anxiety in general, regardless of the school discipline and its potential specificities, as may be the case for physical education (PE). PE is often considered an
