FOG–P: Patients with freezing of gait (FOG) with little to no parkinsonism.

PD–FOG: Patients with Parkinson’s disease without FOG.

Group: The main effects of group (FOG–P and PD–FOG).

Condition: The main effects of walking condition (‘Go’ and ‘Back’).

Interaction: The interaction between group and walking condition.
