Postural control and automaticity in dyslexic children: the relationship between visual information and body sway.

Those problems could be associated with automaticity, i.e., difficulty in performing a task without dispending a fair amount of conscious efforts. If this is the case, dyslexic children would show difficulties in using "unperceived...

متن کاملModeling and Control of Human Postural Sway
INTRODUCTION For quiet standing, the ankle strategy is used for the control of human posture in which the body moves as a rigid mass around the ankle joints. In its simplest form, the body is regarded as a single-link inverted pendulum with movement at the ankle joint controlled by the human postural control system. In patients with neurological impairment, this function might be restored by fu...
متن کاملFactors affecting hand tremor and postural sway in children.
OBJECTIVES It is crucial to consider covariates relevant for outcome variables in developing dose-effect relations of environmental hazardous toxins. The aim of this study was to clarify the covariates affecting hand tremor and postural sway in children. METHODS Hand tremor and postural sway, as well as hair mercury concentrations, were measured in 155 boys and 148 girls at age 7 years. RES...
متن کاملPostural control in down syndrome: the use of somatosensory and visual information to attenuate body sway.
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of visual and somatosensory information on body sway in individuals with Down syndrome (DS). Nine adults with DS (19-29 years old) and nine control subjects (CS) (19-29 years old) stood in the upright stance in four experimental conditions: no vision and no touch; vision and no touch; no vision and touch; and vision and touch.
