Both groups followed the intervention schedule twice a week for 4 weeks. Core stability, static balance, and dynamic balance were assessed using the pressure biofeedback stabilizer (PBS), functional reach test (FRT), and timed up and go (TUG) test. Depression levels were evaluated using the short form geriatric depression scale-Korean version (SGDS-K). Both groups showed significant improvements in core stability, balance, and depression (p < 0.001) after the intervention, but the experimental group demonstrated significantly greater gains compared to the control group (p < 0.05). The results suggest that the combined treatment of Pilates and tDCS offers superior benefits over Pilates alone in improving physical and emotional outcomes in stroke patients. Incorporating tDCS into rehabilitation programs could enhance recovery and quality of life for stroke survivors.","PeriodicalId":50125,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Motor Behavior","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144545865","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This heightened fall risk may be related to alterations in postural control that emerge during different speaking and listening conditions. This study evaluated how variations in the relative articulatory demands during speech production-termed \"oral-motor complexity\"-affect postural center of pressure (COP) patterns among PwS, both with communication disorders (PwS-CDis) and without (PwS). Three groups of adults (PwS, PwS-CDis, and a nondisabled Control group) stood on a force platform while completing four 30-second quiet stance trials, followed by twelve 30-second trials randomized across three experimental conditions of varying oral-motor complexities (\"ba\", \"puh tuh kuh\", \"rah shah lah nah\"). COP variability (SD) was significantly higher during experimental conditions compared to quiet stance, regardless of group and movement plane. Differences in nonlinear time-dependent metrics were found across oral-motor task conditions, particularly among PwS-CDis, suggesting oral-motor complexity may influence underlying postural-motor organization. Distinct temporal-dynamical patterns observed in PwS-CDis indicate a possible link between pathology, postural control, and speech motor tasks, which is relevant when evaluating postural control in individuals with stroke-related communication disorders.","PeriodicalId":50125,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Motor Behavior","volume":" ","pages":"1-16"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144530804","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Six experimental conditions combined three visual conditions (eyes open, eyes closed, VR-based OKS) with two platform frequencies (0.5 Hz, 1.0 Hz). Head and trunk accelerations were recorded using inertial measurement units, and root mean square values were analyzed. Cross-correlation between head and trunk sway was assessed. VR-based OKS induced significantly greater lateral trunk sway compared to the eyes-open condition (p = 0.003). Cross-correlation analysis showed a significant association between lateral head and trunk sway under OKS, with a moderate correlation at 0.5 Hz (r = 0.540, p < 0.05) and a strong correlation at 1.0 Hz (r = 0.793, p < 0.01). VR-based OKS dynamically alters sensory reweighting, inducing synchronized head-trunk movements. These findings highlight the potential use of VR-based OKS in vestibular rehabilitation and underscore the importance of adjusting stimulus intensity to suit individual needs.

This study aimed to investigate the association between chair stepping skills and neuromuscular properties in older adults. Fifty-eight community-dwelling older adults (72.0 ± 5.0 years) participated. High-density surface electromyography from the vastus lateralis (VL) was recorded and was decomposed into individual motor unit activities. The slope (MU slope) and intercept were calculated from the regression line between the individual motor unit recruitment thresholds and firing rates in each participant. Muscle thickness of the VL and vastus intermedius and echo intensity of the VL were evaluated using ultrasonography. While sitting on a chair, they repeatedly opened and closed their legs to position their feet outside and within 30-cm interval lines rapidly for 20 s. The mean steps were associated with echo intensity (r = 0.388, p < 0.01). Step variability was associated with the MU slope (r = 0.324, p = 0.03). These results suggest that the rapid lower-limb movement skills would be determined by neuromuscular quality, such as echo intensity and motor unit firing patterns, in older adults.

Limited elbow flexion was also observed in children with NBPP during the hand on ball and hand on the head tasks. During the hand to head task, children with NBPP presented increased head flexion compared to unaffected controls. Scapular kinematics analysis showed increased posterior tilt in children with NBPP during forward reaching (the hand on ball and hand to head tasks).

As previous search supports the benefits of external focus (EF) over internal focus (IF) of attention in motor tasks, this study investigated attentional effects on dual-task walking performance in young and older adults. A total of 84 healthy participants (42 young adults, 23.02 ± 2.91 years; 42 older adults, 23.02 ± 2.91 years) were instructed to walk while carrying a filled cup without spilling. Walking speed (comfortable, fast) and attentional focus (internal, external, none) were systematically varied. Inertial sensors captured gait speed, cadence, step duration, step length, and pelvis acceleration variability, while spillage was measured in grams. A generalized linear model with bootstrap resampling (α = 0.05) examined the effects of focus, walking speed, and group. Results indicated that young adults walked faster than older adults (p < 0.001), and speed decreased from single-task to dual-task (p = 0.003) and from fast walking to comfortable walking (p < 0.001). No significant effect of attentional focus was found (p ≥ 0.056). The interaction between focus and speed was significant only for spillage (p = 0.041), showing an unimportant difference in spillage between fast walking without focus instructions (398.85 g) and with external focus instructions (399.76 g) (p = 0.030). The interaction between focus and group was not significant (p ≥ 0.531).

We adapted the classic center-out target array; participants stepped to pre-cued targets with an emphasis on accuracy without time constraints. The first set of trials was always Free for which either leg could be chosen. The second set of trials was verbally Constrained for which there was no choice as only the left non-dominant leg was to be used. We separately compared success, effort, and subjective difficulty between Free and Constrained trials for left and right target regions. In Free, participants uniformly selected the limb ipsilateral to the target. While success and subjective difficulty were not influenced by Choice, effort varied depending on Choice.
