  • P value: statistical difference of the AUC value from the random level of 0.5; Sensitivity: individuals correctly predicted to belong to the explored group; Specificity: individuals correctly predicted not to belong to the explored group.

  • AUC, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve; ;20MSRT, 20-m shuttle run test.
