- Brief Summary
The kappa score of the SBM-K individual items and ICC of SBM-K total score were .76–.83 (good–very good) and .98 (.95-.99), respectively. The correlation between the SBM-K total score and individual items was notable (r=.78-.98). Cronbach’s alpha, SEM, and SRD of SBM-K were .98, .59, and 1.64, respectively. The clinical validity of SBM-K was correlated with mSBS (r =.88) and KSCIM-III (r=.65-.89). SBM-K accounted for 37%–72% of the variance in predicting KSCIM-III.

All participants received explanations of the study protocol, and written informed consent was obtained. The criteria for the selection of study participants were based on the American Spinal Cord Injury Association impairment Scale (ASIA E) Classification 10] for individuals with incomplete spinal cord injuries who were 1) able to sit unsupported for 10 seconds 4, 2) follow instructions, and 3) able to communicate.
The exclusion criteria were as follows: 1) spinal cord injury that occurred within 3 months previously, 2) severe muscle strain on the limbs that could affect the sit unsupported test assessment items, and 3) pressure sores in the buttocks and heels, joint contractures, complications from spinal cord disease, musculoskeletal disorders, or external orthosis.
