aThe RGAP reported the relative error computed considering the difference between the measure requested and the measure done by the patients on measure requested.
b t-student for paired samples.
c t-student for independent sample with equal variances assumed.
dThe mean and the median GAP are computed relativizing the absolute value (=the absolute number value) of the gap value of the measure requested.
e p value of MANOVA test.
f p value for two independent samples; the specific test is reported in the last column.
N: number of measurements tested.
