摘要：This study aimed to investigate the comparison of prevalence of trunk dysfunction among athletes in three different sports. Thirty athletes were assessed in a purposely available manner, from each sport by Tuck jump test, and individuals with trunk dysfunction were compared with each other. Analysis of variance ANOVA and Chi-square tests were used to analyze the data. The results showed that there was no significant difference between Tuck jump test scores and trunk dysfunction among three different sports, but valuable information such as the percentage and number of people with trunk dysfunction in table tennis, cycling and swimming (breaststroke and butterfly stroke swimmers), which have different natures and movement patterns, was obtained. By accurately screening, assessing and identifying the trunk dysfunction, the risk of injury, especially anterior cruciate ligament injury, which has a direct relation with trunk dysfunction, can be reduced in athletes.
