Table 3 Significant values of the correlation of age, height, and BMI. Balance parameters and COP-length: p value and Rho-value. The effect size classification is as follows: 1 = < 0.2, poor; 2 = 0.2–0.4, weak; 3 = 0.4–0.6, moderate; 4 = 0.6–0.8, strong; 5 = > 0.8, optimal. Non-normally distributed values in italics. Significant p values are highlighted in bold (Heidelberg, 2015)
