Will continue to edit to add images/videos, additional links as appropriate, and ensure other citations are formatted appropriately (which may require editing someone else's work, as I believe my citation followed theirs), just want my present changes saved.)

Objective[edit | edit source]

Five Times Sit to Stand Test.jpg

The 30 Second Sit to Stand Test is also known as 30 Second Chair Stand Test (30CST), was initially designed for testing leg strength and endurance in older adults. It is part of the Fullerton Functional Fitness Test Battery. This test was developed to overcome the floor effect of the five or ten repetition sit to stand test in older adults.[1] There is also some consideration for its use as a physical performance test in younger adult and athletic populations, but further investigation may be necessary.

Intended Population[edit | edit source]

  • Adults 18-64 years
  • Older adults and geriatric care (65 years and above)
  • People with osteoarthritis

Method of Use[edit | edit source]

  • The 30-Second Chair Test is administered using a folding chair without arms, with seat height of 17 inches (43.2 cm). The chair, with rubber tips on the legs, is placed against a wall to prevent it from moving.
  • The participant is seated in the middle of the chair, back straight; feet approximately a shoulder width apart and placed on the floor at an angle slightly back from the knees, with one foot slightly in front of the other to help maintain balance. Arms are crossed at the wrists and held against the chest.
  • Demonstrate the task both slowly and quickly.
  • Have the patient practice a repetition or two before completing the test.
  • If a patient must use their arms to complete the test they are scored 0.
  • The participant is encouraged to complete as many full stands as possible within 30 seconds. The participant is instructed to fully sit between each stand.
  • While monitoring the participant’s performance to ensure proper form, the tester silently counts the completion of each correct stand.  The score is the total number of stands within 30 seconds (more than halfway up at the end of 30 seconds counts as a full stand). Incorrectly executed stands are not counted.
  • The 30-second chair stand involves recording the number of stands a person can complete in 30 seconds rather then the amount of time it takes to complete a pre-determined number of repetitions. That way, it is possible to assess a wide variety of ability levels with scores ranging from 0 for those who can not complete 1 stand to greater then 20 for more fit individuals.[1]

Chair stand – Number of stands by age group[edit | edit source]

A below average number of stands for the patient’s age group indicates a high risk of falls.

Evidence[edit | edit source]

Community-dwelling Elderly Adults[edit | edit source]

Test/ Retest Reliability in Community-dwelling Elderly

  • Excellent test-retest reliability total number of participants: r = 0.89 [95% Confidence Interval (CI) 0.79-0.93][4]

Interrater/Intrarater Reliability in Community-dwelling Elderly

A pilot study using a subsample of 15 participants shows excellent interrater reliability: r = 0.95 (95% CI = 0.84-0.97)[4]

Criterion Validity: Predictive /Concurrent

  • Excellent criterion validity of the chair stand compared to weight adjusted leg press performance for all participants: r = 0.77, 95% CI = 0.64-0.85
  • Excellent criterion validity of the chair stand compared to weight adjusted leg press performance of men: r = 0.78, 95% CI = 0.63-0.88
  • Excellent criterion validity of the chair stand compared to weight adjusted leg performance of women: r = 0.71, 95% CI = 0.53-0.84[4]
