Top rows show the descriptive statistics via medians and interquartile ranges across standing tasks. Unit is mg (g = earth acceleration unit). Below, relative differences between conditions and inferential tests (Wilcoxon rank tests) are presented. Significant results are in bold print. Significance thresholds (Bonferroni-corrected for multiple comparisons) are: p = 0.004 for axes (12 comparisons); and p = 0.01 for vision (5 comparisons). ML: mediolateral. AP: anteroposterior. EC: eyes closed. EO: eyes open. For other abbreviations, see Table 2.
