The purpose of the study was to determine the degree to which scores of a modified version of the 'Timed Get Up and Go' test (TGUG) were associated with other measures of functional performance. Thirty-seven community-dwelling older women (72.3+/-5.5 years) volunteered to participate. Subjects were assessed when performing the modified TGUG test. Correlations between the performance-oriented mobility assessment (POMA), single-leg balance, five chair rises, fast and normal gait speed, knee extension and flexion strength, and the modified TGUG were conducted. Total time to perform the modified TGUG test was significantly correlated with normal and fast gait speed (p<0.05). The Pearson correlation coefficients were -0.841 and -0.748, respectively. The time needed to perform several tasks of the modified TGUG test significantly correlated with five chair rises, and with right knee extensor strength (p<0.05). Points obtained in the assessment questionnaire correlated significantly to points obtained in the POMA scale (p<0.05). The Pearson correlation coefficient was 0.795. Based on the strength of the correlations obtained between components of the modified TGUG and the comparison tests, concurrent, criterion validity of the modified TGUG has been established.
本研究旨在确定改良版“计时起立行走测试”（TGUG）的分数与其他功能表现测量之间的关联程度。37 名居住在社区的老年女性（72.3±5.5 岁）自愿参与。在进行改良 TGUG 测试时对受试者进行评估。对表现导向的移动能力评估（POMA）、单腿平衡、5 次椅子站起、快速和正常步态速度、膝关节伸展和屈曲力量以及改良 TGUG 之间进行相关性分析。改良 TGUG 测试的总用时与正常和快速步态速度显著相关（p<0.05）。Pearson 相关系数分别为-0.841 和-0.748。改良 TGUG 多项任务所需的时间与 5 次椅子站起以及右膝伸肌力量显著相关（p<0.05）。评估问卷中的得分与 POMA 量表中的得分显著相关（p<0.05）。Pearson 相关系数为 0.795。基于改良 TGUG 各组成部分与比较测试之间获得的相关性强度，确立了改良 TGUG 的同时效性、标准效度。
