Walk to me when I smile, step back when I'm angry: emotional faces modulate whole-body approach–avoidance behaviors
Facial expressions are potent social cues that can induce behavioral dispositions, such as
approach–avoidance tendencies. We studied these tendencies by asking participants to …

Center of pressure displacements during gait initiation in individuals with obesity
Background Obesity is known to affect balance and gait pattern increasing the risk of fall and
injury as compared to the lean population. Such risk is particularly high during postural …
