Analyses are based on data from in the intervention group and in the control group. Positive mean values indicate a better function, except for the Motion Sensitivity Test, Dizziness Handicap Inventory, and Visual Analogue Scale. The intervention with a computerized training program. Wilcoxon Rank-Sum test.
