Abstract:[Purpose] Falls can significantly affect elderly individuals. However, most current
methods used to detect and analyze high-risk conditions make use of simulated falling
movements for data collection, which may not accurately represent actual falls. The
present study aimed to induce natural falls using visual and auditory stimuli to create
unstable walking conditions. [Participants and Methods] Two experiments were performed.
The first experiment focused on inducing unstable walking using visual stimuli; where… Show more
