    Reliable assessment of forward head posture (FHP) has been an important issue for the efficient rehabilitation of head/neck disorders and pain symptoms, but no standardized evaluation methods have yet been developed. The purpose of this study was to determine a reliable head position assessment method by evaluating the test-retest reliability of various static and dynamic head position variables and assessment conditions. Twenty healthy subjects were recruited and their head position relative to the upper back were measured by three different dimensions (horizontal gap between the tragus and the 7th cervical vertebra, horizontal gap between the tragus and the acromion processes, angle between vertical and a line of tragus-7th cervical vertebra) three times per dimension in 5 different posture conditions. Study results show that the head position variables varied significantly between posture conditions, indicating the importance of a standardized test method. Test-retest reliability evaluation results show that the tragus-C7 horizontal gap dimension was more reliable than other head position variables specifically when it was measured while standing or walking. Based on the findings of this study, it can be concluded that the severity of FHP can be more reliably assessed if the position of the head is measured when the patient is in standing or comfortable walking.
