About Timed “Up & Go” Test
The T U G assesses basic mobility (Podsiadlo & Richardson, 1991). The participant was asked to stand from a seated position, walk three meters, turn around a cone, return to their seat and sit down. A standard chair with arms was used for this test. An investigator demonstrated the test for the participants before their trial. The time was recorded to the nearest 10 of seconds. The T U G has excellent inter-rater (r=0.99) and test-retest reliability (ICC=0.98) among older adults (Podsiadlo & Richardson, 1991). In addition, the T U G has good construct validity through correlation with gait speed (r = 0.75), Functional Stair Test (r = 0.59), and performance-based balance measure (Berg Balance Scale, r = -0.76) (Steffen et al., 2002) in an older adult population.
