Why would someone who has published... 1. Publications: a. M.Watson & R Shutt. 'Movement Recording and Analysis: An Innovative and Economical Method using a P.C.'. Physiotherapy Journal Volume 18, No.7 (P.485) (b.) M.Watson &R.Shutt. Movement Recording and Analysis using a P.C.: An Innovative Application using existing Technology. Clinical Rehabilitation. December 1993. ...and is a codirector of a firm marketing the "Angles" goniometer not have the references on goniometry/reliability freely available on the databases. His current work on the use and awareness of IM&T suggest that it is not through lack of access to the net. I was looking for Mr. Shutt's e-mail address in order to send the results of several hours of research in order to save him the trouble but feel less inclined to once I read his background. I remember a long discussion about genuine enquiries and demonstrating evidence of suitable prior effort before submitting requests on the physio list. Perhaps it is time to highlight the code of conduct again.

So far Medline/Cinhal has thrown up very little. It has always been my understanding that both the inter and intra ratings for this clinical tool are rather low! - but can't find the references.
