Abstrakt: The article presents a study which compares the intrarater and interrater reliability of goniometric (GON) and trigonometric (TRIG) techniques for measuring hip-extension range of motion (ROM) during the modified Thomas test among patients. The study contained a total of 22 college students who were recruited for testing protocols. Results show the effectiveness of TRIG technique as compared with the GON technique.
