Appropriate statistical analysis of clustered data necessitates accounting for within-participant effects to ensure results are repeatable and translatable to real-world applications. This study aimed to compare statistical output and injury risk interpretation differences from two statistical regression models built from a clinical movement sidestepping database. A “naïve” regression model, which does not account for within-participant effects, was compared with an appropriately applied mixed effects model.
