ICC intraclass correlation coefficient, with a 95% confidence interval, CV coefficient of variation, SEMeas standard error of the measurement, MDCind individual minimal detectable change, MDCgr group minimal detectable change, NA: not applicable.

* Reliability outcomes are presented for non-transformed data distributions in order to facilitate interpretation but considerations of these data must be done cautiously because the assumption of the normality of the distribution was violated.
