“…All articles included static balance tests that required the children to balance on one leg. Some articles ( n = 11) reported this simply on a firm surface with eyes open [ 32 , 34 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 70 ]. Stankovic and Radenkovic [ 71 ] also asked children to stand on a single leg on a firm surface, repeating this with their eyes closed.…”

“…Twelve articles used time, in seconds, as the outcome measure for the single-leg tests [ 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 71 , 72 , 73 , 76 ]. The range of time the single-leg stance was maintained for on a hard surface with eyes open ranged from 6.67 s [ 63 ] to 87.6 s [ 65 ], with eyes closed, 6.9 s was the lowest outcome [ 71 ] with 33.62 s being the highest [ 73 ].…”
