| Abstrakt: | Background: The Mini-BESTest (Balance Evaluation Systems Test) is a standardized balance evaluation tool. The psychometric properties of the Mini-BESTest are being established around the world. Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Icelandic translation of the Mini-BESTest. Methods: Thirty rehabilitation inpatients (16/14 women/men), with mixed diagnoses and a range of self-assessed balance, were assessed with the: Mini-BESTest on two occasions; Activities-specific Balance Confidence Scale; Berg Balance Scale; Timed Up and Go test; and 10 Meter Walk Test. Statistical analyses included the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC), standard error of measurement (SEM), Cronbach's alpha (α), Pearson's r, and the independent t-test. Results: Relative reliability demonstrated good test-retest (ICC |
