ABSTRACT
Introduction: The Reedco’s posture score is a standard posture assessment and graded in the coronal and sagittal views in head-to-foot sequences. The RPS has been extensively used in several populations. reliability is of a set of test scores that relates to the amount of random error from the measurement process that might be embedded in the scores. Test retest assesses the degree to which test scores are consistent from one test administration to the next. Methodology: total 10 individuals from Parul university taken to find test-retest reliability of Reedco postural assessment scale. Each area of the indivials body alignment is graded with 10 = good, 5 = fair, and 0 = poor. On 1st and 3rd. Reedco postural assessment score taken on same individuals and giving score from 100. Result and conclusion: The results revealed a test-retest reliability coefficient of 0.99. This high reliability coefficient indicates an almost perfect agreement between the scores obtained in the two assessment sessions using the REEDCO Postural Assessment Scale. Keywords: Reedco postural assessment score, Test-retest reliability, chronic trapezius muscle pain, intraclass correlation coefficient
