pubmed:abstractText |
Rapid stepping reactions are a prevalent response to sudden loss of balance and play a crucial role in preventing falls. A previous study indicated that young adults are able to guide these stepping reactions amid challenging environmental constraints using "stored" visuospatial information. This study addressed whether healthy older adults also use "stored" visuospatial information in this manner, or are more dependent on "online" visual control.
