ContextClinical assessments of landing mechanics often require complex scoring systems or laboratory-based motion analysis, which can limit feasibility in routine practice. A visually based landing-mechanics score centered on a standardized optimal joint-alignment configuration ("Zero Position") may offer a simple, clinically deployable alternative. ObjectiveTo determine the intra- and inter-rater reliability of a landing mechanics score based on standardized optimal joint alignment at the mome...
