Mean (SD) for test sessions 1 and 2, mean difference (95% confidence interval) (test 2 minus test 1), intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) (95% confidence interval), and 95% limits of agreement (LOA) between test sessions 1 and 2 (test 2 minus test 1) in the stabilometric variables (amplitude in mm, average speed in mm·s-1, and number of movements exceeding 5 mm (DEV 5) and 10 mm (DEV 10)) in the frontal and sagittal planes.
