Table 5 One way ANOVA test to comparison different parameters of balance learning between healthy subject (n = 15) and Parkinson’s disease patients without (n = 15) and with (n = 15) freezing of gait (FOG).

Variabe

Balance learning rate in the first day: ((B5 D1- B1 D1)/B1 D1)*100

Balance learning slope in the first day (a=(y-b)/x)

Balance learning rate in 7th day: ((B5 D7 - B1 D7)/B1 D7)*100

Balance learning slope in the 7th day (a=(y-b)/x)

One day retention: ((R1 – B5D1)/B5D1)*100

Seventh day retention: ((B1 D7 – B5D1)/B5D1)*100
