| Abstract | The purpose of this study was twofold: (1) to describe a new version of the weight-bearing ankle lunge test (WBLT) that is simple to administer, that allows clinicians and sports medicine practitioners to directly assess (in degrees) the ankle dorsiflexion range of motion in a very short period of time while adopting a comfortable testing position; as well as (2) to determine the test-retest reliability of the ankle dorsiflexion range of motion measure obtained from the new version of the WBLT. A total of 50 active adults completed this study. All participants performed the new version of the WBLT on three different occasions, with a two-week interval between testing sessions. Reliability was examined through the change in the mean between consecutive pairs of testing sessions (ChM), standard error of measurement (SEM), minimal detectable change at 95% confidence interval (MDC95), and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC2,k). The findings showed negligible or trivial ChM values for all the flexibility measures analysed (<1°). Furthermore, the SEM and MDC95 scores for the ankle dorsiflexion measure were 1.3 and 3.8 respectively, and the ICC2k was 0.95. Therefore, this study demonstrated that the ankle dorsiflexion measure obtained from the new version of the WBLT has excellent test-retest reliability scores. Thus, an observed change larger than 3.8° from baseline scores after performing a treatment would indicate that a real change in ankle dorsiflexion range of motion was likely. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
