To maintain balance during locomotion, the central nervous system (CNS) accommodates
changes in the constraints of spatial environment (eg, existence of an obstacle or changes in …

Current protocols for returning athletes to play (RTP) center around resolution of physical
symptoms of concussion. However, recent research has identified that balance and …

Abstract Changes in a subject's state have been shown to modulate the perceptual update
of his or her action capabilities. In parallel, sleep deprivation impairs in cognitive functions. It …

The current study investigated whether younger (college-age) and older adults (60+ years)
differ in their ability to perceive safe and unsafe motor actions. Participants decided whether …

Theories of embodied perception hold that the visual system is calibrated by both the body
schema and the action system, allowing for adaptive action–perception responses. One …

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; …

During everyday life we move around busy environments and encounter a range of
obstacles, such as a narrow aperture forcing us to rotate our shoulders in order to pass …

Successful execution of motor tasks requires an integration of the perception of one's
physical abilities and the perception of the task itself. Physical and cognitive decline …

Abstract Changes in an individual's state—for example, anxiety/chronic pain—can modify
the perception of action capabilities and physical task requirements. In parallel …

Background The Timed Up and Go (TUG) test is widely used to assess locomotion in
patients with stroke and is considered to predict the risk of falls. The analysis of locomotor …
