This study looks at how stress affects balance in young adults (ages 18-39) and older adults (age 65 and older). Researchers want to understand if stress makes it harder to keep steady, which could help prevent falls in older adults.
This study looks at how getting older and muscle tiredness change your ability to keep your balance and control your movements. It may help explain why some people are more likely to fall.
This study looks at how feeling mentally tired changes your posture and reflexes. If you're a healthy, active adult between 18 and 35, you might be able to help researchers learn more.
This study looks at how feeling mentally tired can change the way you walk, using a special head cap that records brain activity. It might help us understand why people walk differently when they are tired and could lead to better ways to prevent falls.
