We verified whether TUG test measurements differed according to the seat height of the chair, presence or absence of armrests, and measurement location in young healthy adults, and to clarify the flexibility of the TUG settings. As results, in young healthy adults, TUG test measurements were unaffected by differences in chair height, use of armrests, or the location of the measurement.
