Note: PID = participant identification letter; DOI = duration of injury; LOI = level of injury; AIS = American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale; 10MWT = 10-meter walk test; 6MWT = 6-minute walk test; LOA = level of assistance; M = male; F = female; NT = nontraumatic SCI.

^aLOA categories: Mod = moderate assistance: participant performs 50%-74% of the task. Min = minimal assistance: the user performs 75% or more of the task. S = supervision: trainer is close enough to reach in to provide support for balance as needed. MI = modified independence: participant does not need any physical assistance.
