Assessing age-related balance deterioration: Visual or mechanical tasks?

TL;DR: Overall, older adults performed worse than young across the predictable and unpredictable tracking and visual and mechanical tasks and the visual mediolateral balance assessment was more sensitive to age‐related balance deterioration than the mechanicalmediolateral‐balance‐assessment.

Correction to: ‘Assessing the stability of human locomotion: a review of current measures’ (2013) by Bruijn et al.

TL;DR: Meijer et al. as discussed by the authors reviewed the stability of human locomotion and found that walking over an unstable support surface increases values of λS, but not of the number of hops required for locomotion.

The Effects of Intermittent Trunk Flexion With and Without Support on Sitting Balance in Young Adults

TL;DR: The results indicate that prolonged intermittentflexion does not induce any changes in CoP motion during a seated balance task, regardless of the presence of a trunk support during prolonged intermittent flexion, which suggests a successful compensation of decreased passive stiffness by increased reflex activity.
