Abstract:Previous studies have indicated that increased steadiness constraints given by a manual task leads to gains of postural stability in quiet and perturbed standing. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of manual task constraints on the regulation of dynamic postural control according to the frequency of sinusoidal translations of the base of support. Twenty university students performed a dual posturomanual task consisting of maintaining a cylinder on a handheld tray as stable as possible whi… Show more
