Prediction of Cardio-respiratory Fitness Utilizing a Modified Step Test Protocol
… the validity of the newly developed Jackrabbit step test equation and to determine if the Jackrabbit equation is more reliable than the Queen’s College step test (QCST). It was hypothesized that the Jackrabbit equation would provide a valid prediction of VO<sub>2</sub>peak and would provide more …

Prediction of maximum oxygen uptake from a modified Ymca 3-minute step test
… Men's Christian Association (YMCA) 3-Minute Step Test was investigated. Sixty apparently healthy males and females between the ages of 18 and 55 years stepped on a height specific bench for 3 minutes in order to obtain their 1-minute and 15-second post exercise recovery heart rates. An EKG …

Development of an incremental step test that accounts for lower limb length for people undergoing rehabilitation
This study developed a multi-stage step test for the prediction of VO2peak in people with low tolerance to exercise. The aim was to develop a simple and safe protocol, that accounted for differences in statute height and is suitable for use in exercise rehabilitation. The step height (Hstep) was …

Test mass metrology for tests of the equivalence principle
… typically predict violations of this principle. Testing it at a high sensitivity is expected to make a breakthrough in the current understanding of Physics. A space-based project, STEP (Satellite Test of the Equivalence Principle), aims at testing the principle to the level of 10\(^{−18}\). This …

The association between cardiorespiratory fitness and performance in a submaximal stepping test standardised for external workload
Submaximal step tests are used to predict maximal oxygen consumption and work capacity. However, if the external workload is not controlled the interpretation of the test results may be inaccurate. The purpose of the research was to develop a submaximal test of cardiorespiratory fitness using a …

Effect of a non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory drug (Indocin) on selected parameters of muscular function following concentric and eccentric work
… four drug groups. Subjects performed a 30 minute step test during which one limb led the stepping movement throughout (concentric contractions) and the contralateral limb trailed throughout (eccentric contractions). The muscular performance parameters of peak torque (PT), torque acceleration …

Transition from Time-Based Education to Competency-Based Education in Surgical Training: A Descriptive Case Study
… integrating the SCORE content framework, the 12-step test development process, Miller’s pyramid of assessment, and Kern’s six-step curriculum design model. Importantly, the study demonstrates that the 12-step test development process was extended beyond individual test development to support the …

Relationship of exercise tolerance, exercise intensity, and physical performance in frail elderly individuals residing in a long-term care facility
… walking and during a low level seated exercise test. Ratings of perceived exertion were determined following the exercise test. Physical performance was determined by timed chair rise and sit, challenged standing, 8-foot walk speed, and 5- minute walk distance. The subjects were tested in one …

Interval Active-Assisted Cycling Intervention Improves Motor Function in Individuals' with Parkinson's Disease
… The control group only came for base and post testing. Testing included motor function (UPDRS and Kinesia), balance (Biodex Balance System SD and Berg), quality of life (PDQ-39), and cardiovascular fitness (3-minute step test). All testing was done at baseline and at the end of the four-weeks, …
