Only for the CV, FES‐I and MSRS variables medians (interquartile range) are given. The Bayes factor (BF10) indicates the odds for the alternative hypothesis versus the null hypothesis to be true. Significant p‐values are displayed in bold.
LDE, local divergence exponent (gait stability); CV, coefficient of variation; CMP, conscious motor processing; MSC, movement self‐consciousness; MSRS, Movement Specific Reinvestment Scale.
