All rights reserved. Objective: The purpose of the present study is to assess the inter- and intra-rater reliability of a postural assessment for detecting scoliosis between 4<sup>th</sup> year physical therapy (PT) students and PT specialists by using 30 postural indices. Material and Method: Six examiners, three 4<sup>th</sup> year PT students and 3 certified PT specialists, performed the postural indices on 10 asymptomatic subjects. Results: Inter-rater reliability between 4<sup>th</sup> year students and PT specialists and intra-rater reliability ranged from poor to almost perfect. Two items that needed rectification were PSIS level and iliac crest. Conclusion: There was a variable range of values in agreement either within or between examiners for the assessment of scoliosis screening. This shows that the assessment in scoliosis screening should be used with caution by 4<sup>th</sup> year students. 2018-11-09T02:42:12Z 2018-11-09T02:42:12Z 2014-01-01 Article Journal of the Medical Association of Thailand.
