A Comparison of Quantitative and Qualitative Motion Analysis Techniques as Tools to Identify Movement Disorders

Abstract

dc:description

The Labanotation total score for the postural stability and gait tasks was the only measure used in this study that distinguished statistically significant group differences (p ≤ .05) between all three groups of participants. The Labanotation total score is a useful method for identifying individuals with movement disorders in situations where expensive and time consuming motion analysis equipment is unavailable such as institutions for the developmentally disabled.
