2011 The quality of evidence of psychometric properties of three-dimensional spinal posture-measuring instruments

Description: This paper reports the findings of a systematic literature review which aimed to 1) identify non-invasive three-dimensional (3D) human posture-measuring instruments; and 2) assess the quality of reporting of the methodological procedures undertaken to establish their psychometric properties, using a purpose-build critical appraisal tool.
Conclusions There is a lack of current research to establish the psychometric properties of non-invasive 3D human posture-measuring instruments.
