About this evidence rating
Test-retest studies report that several countermovement-jump metrics (such as jump height and peak force) are reliable, while others (such as rate of force development) are less so. A comparison across commercial force-plate systems found acceptable agreement for some metrics and systematic bias for others. These studies address reliability and agreement, not whether using force plates improves training or injury outcomes. The rating applies to the category, not to any brand.
