Implication

This observational analysis shows strong reliability and validity of the TASHUN test in neurotypical children, suggesting its use in assessing primitive reflexes.

Key Points

The TASHUN test demonstrated strong positive correlations with all values exceeding 0.8, identifying significant retained reflexes.
Validation using ROC analysis showed excellent predictive power with area under the curve (AUC) values over 0.9 for the TASHUN test.
Reliability was confirmed through Intraclass Correlation Coefficient, with values above 0.9 indicating excellent agreement among evaluators.
Testing for primitive reflexes in neurotypical children is essential for understanding motor development and identifying potential deficiencies.
