Abstract
Roentgenograms were used to compare the accuracy of selected external posture measurements of the pelvis and lumbar regions on 31 college women. One external measure of lumbar convexity proved to be reliable. The effect that hip and trunk flexibility and back and abdominal muscle strength had on lumbar lordosis was not significant.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
