The smallest detectable stimulus is called the absolute threshold, while the smallest detectable change in the intensity of a stimulus is called the difference threshold.
This study aimed to determine its test-retest reliability and smallest detectable change (SDC).
The smallest detectable change ranged from 0.50 to 0.78 mm and comprised 9.8%16.3%% of the mean thickness.
Studies calculating standard error of measurement (SEM) were accepted as the smallest detectable change (SDC) and used for assessment.
A test retest reproducibility was performed for analyzing standard error of measurement (SEM agreement), reliability (ICC) and smallest detectable change (SDC) in individuals and groups.
In assessing measurement property rating for responsiveness, we defined smallest detectable change as the minimal change required to ensure the observed change is real [30].
Both studies rated fair in methodological quality were rated as indeterminate for measurement properties due to no smallest detectable change being assessed.
In the perceptual literature, JND represents the smallest detectable change by which a subject can reliably discriminate between a comparator and an original stimulus.
The present study evaluates the interpretability of individual changes and assesses the minimal important change (MIC) for improvement and the smallest detectable change (SDC) of the Nurses Work Functioning Questionnaire (NWFQ).
Further work to investigate other validity components such as criterion validity, smallest detectable change and responsiveness to resistance exercise interventions may be beneficial to the current level of evidence.
The smallest detectable change can be measured from test-retest studies provided the length of time between tests is appropriate and the variable being measured remains stable between tests [18].
