Abstract

The aim of this study is to assess test-retest reliability of functional anthropometry measures and the Older American Resources and Services (OARS) survey among older Mexican American adults. A healthy sample of 30 Older Mexican American adults was selected from senior recreation centers. For functional anthropometry 20 variables were measured in the participants, and the participants were also asked to fill the OARS survey. All the participants responded to both the test again after two weeks and helped to assess the test-retest reliability of functional anthropometry measures and the OARS Survey. Pearson correlation analysis of the results indicates that the results of the anthropometric test and the OARS survey for the first administration and second administration were significantly positively correlated.
