SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: The analysis of centre of pressure (COP) excursions
is used as an index of postural stability in standing. Conflicting data have been reported over …

The traditionally separate researches on cognitive functions and basic coordinations such
as stance and locomotion are coming together in the study of posture-cognition dual-tasking …

Training and testing of balance have potential applications in sports and medicine.
Laboratory grade force plates (FP) are considered the gold standard for the measurement of …

Reliability is a population-specific property, but to the authors' knowledge there has been no
study to determine the test–retest reliability of the postural stability measures such as center …

Falling is the second most prevalent cause of accidental death in the world. Currently
available clinical tests to assess balance in older people are insufficiently sensitive to screen …

Centre of foot pressure (CoP) measures, computed from a force platform, are commonly
used to assess individual's postural control during unperturbed stance. The purpose of the …

Some symptoms related to disequilibrium may not be detected by a clinical exam. Therefore,
objective study is important in assessing balance. In this paper, methods to measure …

This study aimed to (1) estimate the reliability of 36 centre of pressure (COP) summary
measures in healthy participants and (2) identify the main sources of variability in order to …

Aim: It has been reported that the fall incidence in women is much higher than men and that
fallers have worse postural balance performance than non‐fallers. However, it is …

The purpose of this study was to compare the test-retest reliability of a wide variety of center-
of-pressure (CoP) based postural sway measures and their ability to detect the differences …
