Action note: In: Summary: ABSTRACT. This research study investigated the psychometric properties of Brief-Balance Evaluation Systems Test (Brief- BESTest) in evaluating the balance of apparently health community-dwelling elderly in Intramuros, Manila. A total of sixty-three (63) community dwelling participants aged 60-year-old and above with score of 24 and above on Mini-Mental state Examination and can ambulate with or without assistive device were included in the study [mean (SD) age: 65-73 (4.83) years]. Two registered Physical therapists assessed and evaluated the participants using Brief-BESTest and Berg Balance Scale (BBS). Participants answered the Short FES-I independently. The BBS was utilized for the concurrent validity while the short FES-I was for the convergent validity of the Brief BESTest. The researchers documented the assessment by using video recording. After a week, the videos were reassessed by the assessors to gather the intra-rater reliability. The Brief-BESTest had an excellent internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.994) with good intra-rater reliability of PT 1 (ICC=0.865, p=.000) and PT 2 (ICC=1.00) and inter-rater reliability (ICC=0.988, p=.000). There was a significant concurrent validity between BriefBESTest and Berg balance scale. However, there was no correlation between BriefBESTest and Short FES-I (r=0.167, p=194). there was no significant convergent validity (r= -0.167, p=.194) between Brief BESTest and Short FES-I. The research study concluded that the Brief Nalance Evaluation Systems Test had good psychometric properties regarding internal consistency, inter-rater reliability, intra-rater reliability and concurrent validity with BBS.
