Posturographic parameter; lower values indicate better postural stability
Time frame: Baseline
Area of sway (AOS)
Posturographic parameter; lower values indicate better postural stability
Time frame: Baseline
Core stability test of the Swiss Olympic Medical Center
Measurement of Core strength/Core stability in sec; higher values indicate better core strength
Time frame: Baseline
Baecke Questionnaire of Habitual Physical Activity (BQHPA)
Questionnaire of physical fitness; higher values indicate higher physical fitness
Time frame: Baseline
Stability energy
Posturographic parameter, measures economy of movement; higher values mean lower stabilty
Time frame: Baseline
Harmony index
Posturographic parameter
Time frame: Baseline
Frequency of sway
Posturographic parameter
Time frame: Baseline
Feedback
Posturographic parameter; quantitative data; a score is calculated by the posturographic system to determine the influence of visual, vestibular and somatosensory feedback on postural control
Time frame: Baseline

Movement control
Posturographic parameter; the frequencies of the movement amplitude during the posturographic measurement are calculated and a score for the low and high frequencies is presented. For the lower frequencies (F1, F2) higher values are positive. For the higher frequencies (F3 - F8) lower values are positive.
Time frame: Baseline
Weight distribution index
Posturographic parameter; Center of pressure at beginning of measurement
Time frame: Baseline
Body mass index (BMI)
Relation weight to height
