More neuroscience researchers are using scalp electroencephalography (EEG) to measure electrocortical dynamics during human locomotion and other types of movement. Motion artifacts corrupt the EEG mask underlying neural signals interest. The cause motion in is often attributed electrode relative skin, but few studies have examined under head motion. In current study, we tested how affected by overall mass surface area commercially available electrodes, as well cable sway contributes...
Improving dynamic balance can prevent falls in humans with neurological and mechanical deficits. Dynamic requires the neural integration of multisensory information to constantly assess state body mechanics. Prior research found that intermittent visual rotations improved training during walking on a narrow beam, but limitations from immersive virtual reality headset hindered effectiveness overall. We theorized occlusions electrically controlled liquid crystal glasses would overcome previous...
There is a need to develop appropriate balance training interventions minimize the risk of falls. Recently, we found that intermittent visual occlusions can substantially improve effectiveness and retention beam walking practice (Symeonidou & Ferris, 2022). We sought determine how affect electrocortical activity during walking. hypothesized areas involved in sensorimotor processing control would demonstrate spectral power changes inter-trial coherence modulations after loss restoration...
The goals of this study were to determine if a single 30-minute session practice walking on treadmill mounted balance beam: 1) altered sacral marker movement kinematics during beam walking, and 2) affected measures standing balance. Two groups young, healthy human subjects practiced for thirty minutes. One group trained with intermittent visual occlusions the other unperturbed vision. We hypothesized that would show changes in sacrum after training there be differences due larger...
Previous functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) found various brain areas in the temporal and occipital lobe involved integrating auditory visual object information. Fiber tracking based on diffusion-weighted MRI suggested neuroanatomical connections between cortex sub-regions of lobe. However, relationship activity white-matter tracks remained unclear. Here, we combined probabilistic order to reveal structural related auditory–visual perception. Ten healthy people were examined by MRI....
