Abstract:This study explores the link between cancelling a prepared gait initiation in response to sudden environmental changes and maintaining body stability. To address this, we developed a gait initiation version of the Stop Signal Task (SST), a widely used tool for evaluating motor inhibition during different forms of action control. To understand the relevance of postural control during gait initiation and suppression, we evaluated the underlying changes in anticipatory postural adjustments (APA). We report that s… Show more
