Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background</bold> Locomotive syndrome (LS), a condition characterized by diminished mobility due to musculoskeletal disorders, is a growing concern among older adults. The 25-item Geriatric Locomotive Function Scale (GLFS-25) is a common tool for LS assessment. However, its reliance on classical test theory and the inclusion of non-motor function items raise questions about its ac...
