The different techniques and methods employed as well as the different quantitative and
qualitative variables measured in order to objectify postural control are often chosen without …

Leg dominance reflects the preferential use of one leg over another and is typically
attributed to asymmetries in the neural circuitry. Detecting leg dominance effects on motor …

The main purposes of the current study were to examine bilateral asymmetry in postural
control during single-leg standing between the dominant and non-dominant legs using a …

The aim of this study was to advance current movement analysis methodology to enable a
technique analysis in sports facilitating (1) concurrent comparison of the techniques …

Human upright posture is maintained by postural movements, which can be quantified by
“principal movements”(PMs) obtained through a principal component analysis (PCA) of …

Female runners have a two-fold risk of sustaining certain running-related injuries as
compared to their male counterparts. Thus, a comprehensive understanding of the sex …

Cortical involvement in postural control is well recognized, however the role of non-visual
afferents remains unclear. Parietal cortical areas are strongly implicated in vestibulo-spatial …

Gait instability is a common problem following stroke, as evidenced by increases in fall risk
and fear of falling. However, the mechanism underlying gait instability is currently unclear …

Leg dominance has been reported as one potential risk factor for lower-limb injuries in
recreational downhill skiers. The current study proposed and tested two possible …

People produce multi-joint movements by organizing many degrees of freedom into a few
major covarying relationships, indicating a high level of inter-joint coordination. These …
