Recommendations for three-dimensional motion capture reporting standardsSubmissions to Sports Biomechanics in the area of running biomechanics and footwear using 3D motion capture technology are encouraged to include the following informa-tion in original research submissions to the journal: - Data sampling frequency and processing procedures (e.g., interpolation, smoothing, and filtering), ideally with justification, including gait cycle event definitions; - Motion capture system and software (version, model, company, origin), number of cameras, system calibration method, and measurement volume. Authors are encouraged to provide information regarding the accuracy of their set-up, such as the average residual and standard deviation of a known measurement length; - Marker placement, 3D biomechanical model or models, participant-specific calibra-tion method (e.g., static vs functional), coordinate systems, and methods for obtaining biomechanical parameters, such as joint centres, body segments, joint angles, and body segment inertial parameters. Any modifications or adaptations to original marker sets, models, conventions, or definitions should be justified and explained in sufficient detail to enable replication. If holes are cut in shoes or footwear are modified to place makers directly on the skin, authors should provide a figure of the shoes with holes and foot/shoe marker placements, report hole dimensions and shapes, as well as the potential influence of modifications on footwear properties and integrity; - Reliability and validity of methods, such as the minimal detectable change of key parameters. Examining the reliability of marker placement and kinematics (and other biomechanical) data in-house is encouraged to support findings.
