Background: The proprioception of the lumbo-pelvic region has been claimed to be a factor potentially affecting the results of the functional movement screen (FMS) test, although no evidence has been yet published for this claim. Objectives: The present study was conducted to investigate the relationships of the FMS test with the proprioception of the core and anthropometric characteristics in athletes. Methods: The present cross-sectional study included 58 female athletes in different fields of sports with a mean age of 21.12 ± 7.1 years, a weight of 59.25 ± 10.2 kg and a height of 164.41 ± 6.2 cm. The FMS test was used to evaluate the functional motor integrity, the six-channel gyroscope (Danesh Salar Iranian Co.) to examine the position sense of the core region, including the hip, pelvis and lower back, and tapes and digital scales to assess anthropometric features. The Spearman and Pearson correlation tests were used to analyse the data. All the statistical analyses were performed in SPSS-24 with a significance level of 95% (P < 0.05). Results: The results suggested no significant correlations among the outcomes obtained from proprioception, anthropometric dimensions and the FMS test results (P > 0.05). Conclusions: The total scores of the FMS test appear not to be significantly associated with the outcomes obtained from the position sensation of the lumbo-pelvic region and anthropometric dimensions.
