Abstract

The aim of this study was the comparison of core trunk stability and functional movement screening test score in girls with and without upper crossed syndrome. The present study is a causal-comparative study. The statistical population of the study consisted of female students aged 12 to 16 years who were screened according to the inclusion criteria of girls available in the first and second secondary schools of Shiraz. Among these people were randomly selected 35 people with UCS and 35 people without UCS. To measure UCS, imaging method, core area endurance by McGill and Sorenson tests and FMS kit were used to evaluate functional movement. In order to compare the mean of research variables between the two groups, independent t-test and Mann-Whitney test were used at a significance level of P<0.05. The results of independent t-test showed a significant difference between the research groups in Plank (P=0.001), Plank on the right side (P=0.017), Plank on the left side (P=0.001). ), Sorensen test (P=0.001) and total FMS score (P=0.001) but the two groups did not show a significant difference in sitting in a V shape at a 60 degree angle (P=0.172). According to results, it is recommended that educators and corrective exercise specialists to consider these cases in their corrective programs to treatment this group of people.
