Table 2 depicts the results of the decomposition for the interaction effect “height x condition.” Gait parameters were grouped into gait domains on the basis of Lord et al. (2013).

^↓indicating significant reduction (balcony vs. laboratory).

^↑indicating significant increase (balcony vs. laboratory).

^↔indicating no significant change (balcony vs. laboratory).

Pace domain: gait velocity, stride length.

Rhythm domain: cadence, stride time.

Phase domain: single and double support phases, swing phases, stance phases.

Variability domain: coefficient of variation of stride length and of stride time.

Support domain: base of support, coefficient of variation of base of support.
