Abstract
Objective: To examine the intra-rater reliability of sitting symmetry and weight-shift activity measurements in poststroke adults. Design: An intra-rater reliability study. Setting: A community setting. Subjects: Adult stroke survivors attending stroke support groups within the community of Nottingham (UK). Main measures: The Balance Performance Monitor used to measure sitting symmetry and weight-shift activity. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) and their 95% confidence intervals (95% Cl) were calculated. The Bland-Altman method for assessing agreement is also presented. Results: We tested 49 participants (median age 73 years; interquartile range 68-81 years). Between-test reliability for sitting symmetry was high: ICC (1, 1) = 0.93 (95% Cl 0.87
