The 16 relevant articles described application of the test in diverse groups of adults. Evidence was summarized regarding the validity, reliability, and responsiveness of the test. Normative values are available.Bohannon, Richard W.Crouch, Rebecca...
One-leg stand Participants balanced on one leg (barefoot, eyes open) for up to 60 s (three trials per leg, best time used). This common test measures static balance. This is a well-established and validated measure of static balance [15]. Normative values for people in three age groups...

On the other hand, when the movement times were above 2 ~ 3 seconds, the values were relatively constant. Full size image It can be said that, when the movement time is above 2.5 seconds, the mechanical load of an STS task is relatively constant. That is to say, this finding suggests...
Sit-stand desk interventions have the potential to reduce workplace sedentary behaviour and improve employee health. However, the extent of sit-stand desk use varies between employees and in different organisational contexts. Framed by organisational cul
These two values were then summed and the combination of smells with the highest combined value was deemed to be the “winner” for that specific threshold. The same process was repeated for every threshold of hyposmia, for all numbers of smell combinations. Using this method, rather than the...

A validated, standardized, and feasible test to assess muscle power in older adults has recently been reported: the sit-to-stand (STS) muscle power test. This investigation aimed to assess the relationship between relative STS power and age and to provide normative data, cut-off points, and ...
