- The Laban Movement Analysis (LMA) system is widely used in the field of human-computer-interaction for classification of human movement and the generation of movement; it has, however, only been partially investigated for reliability. We present the first study systematically investigating the reliability in all its dimensions, meaning we have not only measured LMA's overall reliability, but also computed the reliability of the 4 subcategories. We show that LMA does provide a good balance between coding effort and consistency. Given the fundamental importance of reliability, the paper lays an important foundation for using LMA in different technical and non-technical disciplines.
