Contribution of vision to postural behaviors during continuous support-surface translations

D Joseph Jilk, SA Safavynia, LH Ting - Experimental brain research, 2014 - Springer
During standing balance, kinematics of postural behaviors have been previously observed
to change across visual conditions, perturbation amplitudes, or perturbation frequencies …

Emergence of postural patterns as a function of vision and translation frequency

JJ Buchanan, FB Horak - Journal of Neurophysiology, 1999 - journals.physiology.org
Emergence of postural patterns as a function of vision and translation frequency. We
examined the frequency characteristics of human postural coordination and the role of visual …

Interactions between initial posture and task-level goal explain experimental variability in postural responses to perturbations of standing balance

T Van Wouwe, LH Ting… - Journal of …, 2021 - journals.physiology.org
Postural responses to similar perturbations of standing balance vary widely within and
across subjects. Here, we identified two sources of variability and their interactions by …

Directional sensitivity of “first trial” reactions in human balance control

LB Oude Nijhuis, JHJ Allum, GF Borm… - Journal of …, 2009 - journals.physiology.org
Support-surface movements are commonly used to examine balance control. Subjects
typically receive a series of identical or randomly interspersed multidirectional balance …

Dynamic regulation of sensorimotor integration in human postural control

RJ Peterka, PJ Loughlin - Journal of neurophysiology, 2004 - journals.physiology.org
Upright stance in humans is inherently unstable, requiring corrective action based on spatial-
orientation information from sensory systems. One might logically predict that environments …

Transitions in a postural task: do the recruitment and suppression of degrees of freedom stabilize posture?

JJ Buchanan, FB Horak - Experimental Brain Research, 2001 - Springer
In this study, we examined flexibility in postural coordination by inducing transitions between
postural patterns. Previous work demonstrated that the postural control system produces two …

Exploratory behavior during stance persists with visual feedback

CD Murnaghan, BC Horslen, JT Inglis, MG Carpenter - Neuroscience, 2011 - Elsevier
Recent evidence showing center of pressure (COP) displacements increase following an
external stabilization of the center of mass (COM) supports the theory that postural sway may …

The time course of attention shifts following perturbation of upright stance

RG Norrie, BE Maki, WR Staines… - Experimental brain …, 2002 - Springer
Recent work has revealed the specific time course of attention shifts associated with balance
control in a seated model using a dual-task paradigm. This work highlighted an initial …

Postural responses to unexpected perturbations of balance during reaching

H Trivedi, JA Leonard, LH Ting, PJ Stapley - Experimental brain research, 2010 - Springer
To study the interaction between feedforward and feedback modes of postural control, we
investigated postural responses during unexpected perturbations of the support surface that …

Variability in a dynamic postural task attests ample flexibility in balance control mechanisms

M Schieppati, A Giordano, A Nardone - Experimental brain research, 2002 - Springer
When humans stand upright on a platform that sinusoidally translates in the anterior-
posterior direction, the movements of upper and lower body segments are appropriately …
