This study compares the effects of sleep deprivation and dual-task walking on gait parameters, finding distinct impacts on movement stability and variability.

This study examines how individuals' self-perceived balance ability aligns with actual performance on a balance beam task, finding that task-specific practice improves self-estimation accuracy.

This study examines if increased attentional demand during spatial navigation affects gait and balance, finding no dual-task interference in healthy adults.

This study examines how unexpected underfoot perturbations during turning affect mediolateral stability and recovery strategies in humans.

This study examines how humans adjust foot placement during straight and turning gait when encountering obstacles, finding distinct strategies based on turn type.

This study shows that people adjust their walking and balance when facing virtual height threats to minimize the perceived risk of falling.

This study evaluates the feasibility of continuous head turn monitoring using wearable sensors, finding high reliability and establishing normative data in healthy adults.

This study examines dual-task performance costs of walking and speaking in virtual environments with varying anxiety levels, finding that virtual height increases anxiety but not speech pauses.

This study examines how temporal and physical certainty influence locomotor strategies during underfoot perturbations, finding that physical certainty improves recovery efficiency.

This study compares postural sway in individuals with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and healthy controls during various standing conditions, finding greater sway in mTBI participants.
