Purpose: We have spoken in detail about validity and reliability of assessments used for measurement and evaluation of student performance. A study of the Functional Movement Screening is an opportunity for you to synthesize the major talking points from classroom discussions while analyzing the arguments (for/against) the efficacy of the Functional Movement Screening during measurements in both clinical and student-athlete measurements. The purpose of this exam is to synthesize key constructs of Functional Movement Screenings in effort to make decisions regarding prevention/intervention strategies used in physical activity promotion.
Directions: Complete the following items (5 pts each):
Section I: Functional Movement Screening (FMS) Literature/Notes
Summarize the intent for functional movement screening. In your response, include the following:
Section II: Compare/Contrast of Functional Movement Screening (FMS) (2 pts each).
Conduct a literature review in an effort to find a similar screening test as the FMS and then report the following:
Section III: Research and Assigned Reading: Functional Movement System-Read the section located on Moodle (Gray’s10 principles) AND locate readings from outside sources that are relative to FMS. Be sure to cite and reference all sources. Address the following (10 pts):
Section IV: Application: Complete the following:
Charles was given a Functional Movement Screening and the results indicated a composite score of <14. Specifically, he scored a 1 on the Deep Squat and a 1 on the Lunge screenings. The Deep Squat had indications of compensation to avoid falling forward. The Lunge screening indicated compensation for weight distribution on the front leg. Charles indicated no pain or injury. Using this information, complete the following (10 pts):
Section V: Promotion of Health and Fitness
