The phrase "a measure of functional" is not complete and lacks clarity in written English.
It can be used in contexts where you are discussing the assessment or evaluation of functionality, but it needs additional context to be fully understood.
Example: "The study provided a measure of functional performance in various tasks."
Alternatives: "an assessment of functionality" or "a gauge of functional".
Gait speed, a measure of functional performance that predicts impaired function and mortality [ 29], was assessed using the 20 m walk test at a usual walking pace.
The proposed method predicts gene function using the following steps: (i) learning a measure of functional similarity between gene pairs; (ii) using this similarity measure to form new association networks; and (iii) inferring functions of genes from the new networks.
The response of the stimulated muscle provided a measure of functional competence in the surviving tissue.
Coherence between signals of sensors covering different scalp areas is commonly taken as a measure of functional coupling.
Therefore, assessment of brain glucose utilization can provide a measure of functional activity.

We used three functional diversity indices for avian assemblages (functional richness, functional evenness, and community-weighted specialization as a measure of functional biotic homogenization).
The expression of the protein product of the immediate-early gene c-fos was used as a measure of functional cellular responses within subpopulations of histaminergic neurons.
