Age-related differences in Fukuda stepping and Babinski-Weil tests, within-day variability and test–retest reliability

The Fukuda stepping and Babinski-Weil tests are associated with unperceived body rotation and linear displacements in young adults, but performance in older adults on these two tests has yet to be determined. The main purpose was to compare the performance and reliability of the Fukuda stepping and Babinski-Weil tests in young and older adults. Fifty older and 50 young adults executed three trials of each test on day 1 (test) and day 2 (retest)....
