Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Center of pressure track (COPT)	Baseline	Posturographic parameter; lower values indicate better postural stability
Area of sway (AOS)	Baseline	Posturographic parameter; lower values indicate better postural stability
Core stability test of the Swiss Olympic Medical Center	Baseline	Measurement of Core strength/Core stability in sec; higher values indicate better core strength

Secondary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Frequency of sway	Baseline	Posturographic parameter
Feedback	Baseline	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
Baecke Questionnaire of Habitual Physical Activity (BQHPA)	Baseline	Questionnaire of physical fitness; higher values indicate higher physical fitness
Weight distribution index	Baseline	Posturographic parameter; Center of pressure at beginning of measurement
Body mass index (BMI)	Baseline	Relation weight to height
Movement control	Baseline	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.
Stability energy	Baseline	Posturographic parameter, measures economy of movement; higher values mean lower stabilty
Harmony index	Baseline	Posturographic parameter
