“…Unlike tasks with visual feedback perturbation (Anguera et al, 2011;Bock, 2005;Buch et al, 2003;Contreras-Vidal et al, 2002;Hegele & Heuer, 2010;Seidler, 2006;Vandevoorde & Orban de Xivry, 2019), a number of studies have indicated a minimal role of ageing in the ability to adapt movements to novel force environments (Cesqui et al, 2008;Huang & Ahmed, 2014;Rajeshkumar & Trewartha, 2019;Reuter et al, 2018;Trewartha et al, 2014). Nonetheless, several age-dependent performance predictors have been highlighted, including increased muscle co-contraction (Huang & Ahmed, 2014), reduced central processing of kinematic errors (Reuter et al, 2018) and reduced spatial working memory capacity (Trewartha et al, 2014). Furthermore, younger adults demonstrate a tight relationship between proprioceptive perception and motor performance when adapting to novel force-fields (Haith et al, 2008;Mattar et al, 2013;Ohashi et al, 2019;Ostry et al, 2010).…”
