  1. ICC (2.1), interclass correlation version 2.1 for measuring correlation between test and retest. Agreement estimated by the difference between test and retest, minimal detectable change (MDC) with 95% confidence interval, limits of agreement (LoA), and standard error of measurement (SEMagreemen). Content validity is measured by floor and ceiling effects.
  2. 95% CI (confidence interval) for paired t-test under null hypothesis = no difference between test and retest score.
  3. p < 0,0001 for all ICC’s (interclass correlation coefficient version 2.1) except for the domain walking (p = 0.93).
