Description
CALENDAR DESCRIPTION:
Kinanthropometry uses measurements of the human body to determine its capability for function and movement. The theoretical background, practical application and clinical assessment for topics including anthropometrics, posture, balance, range of motion, strength, muscle length and walking and running gait will be investigated.
COURSE DETAILS:
Remote
All lectures, laboratories and exams will be conducted remotely
Synchronous
All lectures and laboratories will be conducted synchronously.
Number of weeks
13 weeks
Number of hours of lecture/labs/tutorials per week
2 hours of lecture, 2 hours of laboratory
Schedule or list of topics covered in the course
- Interpreting Statistical Results
- Body Composition and Anthropometry
- Assessment of Posture
- Upper Quadrant Range of Motion
- Lower Quadrant Range of Motion
- Muscle Strength and Muscle Length Testing
- Motor and Sensory Function
- Coordination and Balance
- Walking Gait
- Running Assessment
- Assessment of Function
- Physical Performance Tests in Sport
COURSE-LEVEL EDUCATIONAL GOALS:
- Identify the presence of normal and abnormal posture, movement and function
- Compare client assessment findings with normative data
- Select assessment methods that are both valid and reliable
- Analyze the peer reviewed literature regarding relevant assessment techniques
- Classify components of health and disease using the International Classification of Function (ICF) model
- Conduct a structured orthopaedic physical examination
- Differentiate between upper and lower motor neuron syndromes
- Conduct functional assessments to determine a client’s level of independence
- Identify and evaluate the presents of both internal and external risk factors associated with sport-related injury
- Interpret assessment results from various subjective and objective outcome measures
- Communicate assessment results with clients
Grading

Registrar Notes:
ACADEMIC INTEGRITY: YOUR WORK, YOUR SUCCESS
SFU’s Academic Integrity web site http://www.sfu.ca/students/academicintegrity.html is filled with information on what is meant by academic dishonesty, where you can find resources to help with your studies and the consequences of cheating. Check out the site for more information and videos that help explain the issues in plain English.
Each student is responsible for his or her conduct as it affects the University community. Academic dishonesty, in whatever form, is ultimately destructive of the values of the University. Furthermore, it is unfair and discouraging to the majority of students who pursue their studies honestly. Scholarly integrity is required of all members of the University. http://www.sfu.ca/policies/gazette/student/s10-01.html
TEACHING AT SFU IN FALL 2021
Teaching at SFU in fall 2021 will involve primarily in-person instruction, with approximately 70 to 80 per cent of classes in person/on campus, with safety plans in place. Whether your course will be in-person or through remote methods will be clearly identified in the schedule of classes. You will also know at enrollment whether remote course components will be “live” (synchronous) or at your own pace (asynchronous).
Enrolling in a course acknowledges that you are able to attend in whatever format is required. You should not enroll in a course that is in-person if you are not able to return to campus, and should be aware that remote study may entail different modes of learning, interaction with your instructor, and ways of getting feedback on your work than may be the case for in-person classes.
Students with hidden or visible disabilities who may need class or exam accommodations, including in the context of remote learning, are advised to register with the SFU Centre for Accessible Learning (caladmin@sfu.ca or 778-782-3112) as early as possible in order to prepare for the fall 2021 term.
