What is the significance of the marked portion?
What is the minimally clinically important difference (MCID)?
the smallest change in an outcome considered important by patient or clinician
What does test-retest reliability establish?
An instrument’s consistency in measuring a variable
What occurs in a ceiling effect?
a measure’s highest score cannot fully assess a patient’s ability
What is a clinical bottom line of MCID?
indicating the minimum change a patient would feel
What is the primary purpose of comparing a target test with the gold standard?
to determine if the target test could potentially replace the gold standard
Minimally detectable change (MDC) helps to determine what?
whether a true clinical change occurred
in criterion referenced standards for rehabilitation outcomes, how is a patient’s success determined?
by measuring their performance against a predetermined functional threshold
