You are now tuning in to the MPTE clinical files to mock MPTE-based questions told and solved

week by week. Thank you for tuning in to the MPT clinical files. My name is Kyle Rice, the MPT

prep coach, the founder of the PT Hustle and the creator of the MPT Prep Success Coaching Program.

And if you would like a free cheat sheet that goes along with this specific

question, tune in to the end of this episode. And I'm going to give you more information on how to

get that. All right. So for our next MPT clinical file, we have our patient Cassandra. And Cassandra

has been reading an article on shoulder mobility after about of adhesive capsulitis.

In graph form, the article shows 70% of subjects falling below the established mean.

Now, which of the following is the most accurate representation of the graph?

So we got A, negatively skewed bell curve, B, normalized distribution, C, right skewed

bell curve, and D, sampling error.

Now on the MPTE, if you don't know this, research doesn't really count for very much, maybe

like three to four of the questions,

but sometimes it kind of comes down to the wire, right? Those questions could be make you or

break you. When it comes down to the MPTE though, and you're looking at research, I would

say bell curve is one of those things that you really need to understand well. There's a bunch

of questions that can come from there and it's a pretty hot target. So let's go ahead and knock this one down. Again, we have Cassandra

has been reading an article on shoulder mobility after a bout of adhesive capsulitis. Now, I'll stop

there. Adhesive capsulitis, frozen shoulder. We know that that condition has a lot of shoulder mobility

restrictions, mostly due to the capsule itself being bound down. A lot of restrictions there, right?

But here's the deal. Does that really make a difference for this specific question? I don't think so.

I mean, the first sentence is pretty straightforward. Let's continue to
