目标：我们修改了体能测试中现有的标准化测量工具，并从虚弱和受伤的任务：干预技术研究的合作研究，以评估老年妇女的身体功能。我们的目标是（1）表征身体功能主题的任务（派生因素或组件）的组合的基础上，（2）量化派生因素和身体质量指数（BMI）之间的相关性研究方法和程序：营养风险屏幕从登记在医疗保险管理的风险计划作为抽样框架。为了获得一系列BMI的充分代表性，从以下BMI分层中随机抽取90名妇女：BMI，22至24。
Objective: We modified existing standardized measurement tools in the Physical Performance Test and tasks from the Frailty and Injuries: Cooperative Studies of Intervention Technique Study to evaluate physical function in older women. Our objectives were (1) to characterize physical function themes based on combinations of tasks (deriving factors or components) and (2) to quantify the correlation between derived factors and body mass index (BMI).Research Methods and Procedures: Nutrition risk screens from enrollees in a Medicare-managed risk program served as the sampling frame. To obtain adequate representation for a range of BMI, a random sample was obtained of 90 women from the following BMI strata: BMI, 22 to
