Age-dependent adaptations to anticipated and non-anticipated perturbations after balance training in children
2018, Human Movement ScienceCitation Excerpt :Moreover, evidence is rising that supraspinal systems are playing a crucial role in the handling of postural perturbations (Bolton, 2015; Taube, Gruber, & Gollhofer, 2008) and that there are differences in cortical activity between anticipated and non-anticipated perturbations (Adkin, Quant, Maki, & McIlroy, 2006; Wälchli et al., 2017). Since it is known that the supraspinal system progresses during childhood (Giedd et al., 1999; Maatta et al., 2017) and showing adult-like behavior not until the age of 10 years (Bawa, 1981), the more mature supraspinal control may also positively influence training adaptations in anticipated perturbations in the older group. The findings of the present study are solely based on behavioral data (i.e. platform sway path) as it was not possible to investigate the underlying mechanisms with neurophysiological methods due to higher ethical regulations for children.
