measure Balance Error Scoring System (BESS)
Study: Netherlands Twin Register Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Young Netherlands Twin Register YE_FITNSSThe Balance Error Scoring System (BESS) was used to assess balance under 3 testing stances: double leg, single leg (non-dominant leg) and tandem (dominant foot in front of the non-dominant foot in heel-to-toe fashion) on 2 surfaces (ground and foam pad). The total score was the total number of errors across the six 20-second repeated measures.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024
