Intra rater reliability of Y balance test in medical students

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The cross-sectional study was planned to assess the Ybalance test's intra-rater reliability among a sample of 59 medical students. The subjects took six trials under supervision, and the reliability of the results improved, with intra-class correlation values >0.75, indicating high reliability. Though the study had a cross-sectional design, it provided insightful data for focussed assessment. The Ybalance test was found to be an easy and reliable technique for evaluating dynamic balance.
