Previous research has investigated synergies involved in locomotion and balance reactions; however, there is limited insight into the emergence of skilled balance control with practice of challenging tasks. We explored motor learning of tandem and si

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is associated with balance deficits resulting in falls and impaired mobility. Although rehabilitation has been recommended to address these balance deficits, the extent to which people with MS can learn and retain

The current study set out to evaluate how individuals walk through apertures created by different stationary obstacles. Specifically, we examined whether the passability of apertures differed between human and pole obstacles by quantifying aperture c

When avoiding obstacles, path selection is thought to be determined by the attraction of the end-goal. However for aperture crossing, it is unclear whether the attraction point originates in the center of the aperture or at the end-goal, as previous

This study investigated modifications to standing posture in response to elevated postural anxiety evoked by a potential physical threat to stability. Sixteen young adults, 16 older adults and 16 patients diagnosed with Parkinson's disease (PD) stood

Turning has frequent occurrence in everyday activities. Despite the prevalence of turning in everyday life and the challenge it poses to older adults, there is far less known about the multisegmental control of turning than the control of standing an

Postural motor learning for dynamic balance tasks has been demonstrated in healthy older adults (Van Ooteghem et al. in Exp Brain Res 199(2):185-193, 2009). The purpose of this study was to investigate the type of knowledge (general or specific) obta

Background Despite the prevalence of turning in daily activities and the challenges it poses to mobility-impaired individuals, far less is known about the multi-segmental control of turning than the control of straight walking. Gait slows with aging

Healthy older adults were repeatedly exposed to continuous, variable amplitude oscillations of the support surface to determine 1) whether age affects the capacity for postural motor learning under continuous perturbation conditions with limited pred

BackgroundCurrent clinical balance assessment tools do not aim to help therapists identify the underlying postural control systems responsible for poor functional balance. By identifying the disordered systems underlying balance control, therapists c
