Abstract
The purpose of the study was to examine the reliability of an electromagnetic sensor system measuring hip rotation range of motion. Subjects were healthy college-aged males and females (without injury or surgeries on lower extremities). Hip rotation range of motion was measured in various positions (seated, prone, and standing). All measurements were taken actively and passively for internal and external hip rotation range of motion.
