Correlations Between Stooping, Crouching, or Kneeling (SCK) Difficulty and Both Normalized Strength and Clinical Balance Measuresa

Values are Spearman correlation coefficient (r). SCK difficulty was scored on a 5-point ordinal scale. Strength measures were normalized for body size (height × weight), and MSL was normalized for body height prior to computation of r. UST=unipedal stance time, TUG=Timed “Up & Go” Test; MSL=maximum step length.
b Significant at P<.005.
c Significant at P<.01.
