Appendix A. Results for three different explanatory variables, for three different subjects, processed using three different filtering approaches: (1) unfiltered, (2) filtering the entire trial, through impact, and (3) the linear extrapolation technique described by Knudson and Bahamonde (2001). The extrapolation and unfiltered technique resulted in results that were very similar.
