On the functional integration between postural and supra-postural tasks on the basis of contextual cues and task constraint
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2010)
In order to evaluate the effects of uncertainty about direction of mechanical perturbation and supra-postural task constraint on postural control young adults had their upright stance perturbed while holding a tray in a ...
Can quiet standing posture predict compensatory postural adjustment?
(Faculdade de Medicina / USP, 2009)
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to analyze whether quiet standing posture is related to compensatory postural adjustment. INTRODUCTION: The latest data in clinical practice suggests that static posture may play a ...
