<p>Previous research has investigated the BESS and found that
scores were highly varied across experimenters.<br>
This research reveals a number of potential flaws within the
BESS.
</p>
<p>Beyond the problems of subjective scoring, the BESS only
detects dysfunction so that most healthy people and even people
affected by mild concussions score perfectly well on the test.<br>
In the present experiment, we look to assess the BESS test and
compare subjective assessment of balance ability.<br>
By identifying potential flaws in the BESS, we may reveal the
need for other methods that could be used to identify individuals
who have actually sustained a concussion. </p>
