This study examined how people choose their path to a target, and the visual information they use for path planning. Participants avoided stepping outside an avoidance margin …
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 …
Young and older adults demonstrate differences in action when passing through confined spaces (Warren and Whang in J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform 13: 371–383, 1987; …
When passing through apertures, individuals scale their actions to their shoulder width and rotate their shoulders or avoid apertures that are deemed too small for straight passage …

The present study addressed whether visual information about the width of an aperture, obtained at a distance, would be sufficient to guide walking through the aperture without …
The study investigated the impact that action capabilities have on identifying possibilities for action, particularly how postural threat influences the passability of apertures. To do this, the …
Abstract Research Objective The current study set out to determine whether individuals walking in a virtual reality environment pass through apertures made of two avatars …
