Le but de cette étude était d'examiner l'effet d'un programme d'activités physiques sur la stabilité et le contrôle attentionnel de la posture lors de la réalisation concomitante d'une tâche cognitive attentionnelle chez des personnes... more
A literature review examining conventional proprioceptive interventions (i.e. unstable surface training) and novel proprioceptive interventions (i.e. tactile and vibratory stimulation) of the ankle and foot on measures of proprioception... more
This study asked whether individual differences in the influence of vision on postural stability could be used to predict the strength of subsequently induced visual illusions of self-motion (vection). In the experiment, we first measured... more
This pilot study aimed to show that information-free stimulation of the tongue can improve behavioral measures and induce sustained neuromodulation of the balance-processing network in individuals with balance dysfunction. Twelve... more
The aim of the central nervous system in upright stance is to control an intrinsically unstable plant. Internal disturbances, such as hæmodynamics and respiration, constitute an endogenous threat to equilibrium. The way CNS reacts to... more
