Figure 1.

Demonstration of two multi-segmental flexion patterns of the Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA). Figure 1A would be scored as Functional Non-Painful (FN) using the categorical scoring scale (Appendix B) and a 0 on the criterion scale (Appendix C). Figure 1B would be scored Dysfunctional Non-Painful (DN) using the categorical scoring scale and a score of 3 on the criterion scale for inability to touch the toes, a sacral angle of less than 70 degrees from vertical, and excessive effort in performing the movement.
