The functional movement screen (FMS) is an easily administered and noninvasive tool for identifying weaknesses and asymmetry during exercises and daily activity. The clinical utility of FMS is currently limited by its lack of normative reference values. This study aimed to fill this void by providing normative reference values for healthy, middle-aged adults. Furthermore, we hypothesized that FMS would be affected by other factors such as age, body mass index (BMI), exercise participation, and Balance Error Scoring System scores. Six hundred and twenty-two healthy adults were assessed based on their performance on the 7-Point FMS. A higher level of exercise participation was associated with higher FMS scores, whereas higher BMI and age were associated with lower FMS scores. There was a significant difference between individuals with high (>30) and moderate BMIs (F[621] = 33.98, p < 0.0001). The normative reference values presented can be used in clinical practice to identify abnormal scores across a broad age spectrum.
功能运动筛查（FMS）是一种易于管理且非侵入性的工具，可在运动和日常活动中识别弱点和不对称。FMS 的临床实用性目前受到其缺乏规范参考值的限制。本研究旨在通过为健康的中年成年人提供规范参考值来填补这一空白。此外，我们假设 FMS 会受到其他因素的影响，例如年龄、体重指数（BMI）、运动参与度和平衡错误评分系统分数。根据 7 点 FMS 的表现，对 622 名健康成年人进行了评估。较高的运动参与度与较高的 FMS 分数相关，而较高的 BMI 和年龄与较低的 FMS 分数相关。高（>30）和中度 BMI 个体之间存在显著差异（F[621] = 33.98，p < 0.0001）。本研究提出的规范参考值可用于临床实践，以识别广泛年龄范围内的异常分数。
