Dual-task Performance Involving Grip Force Control in Older Adults with Type 2 Diabetes
… brain structures responsible for attention and grip force control. Precision grip force relies on complex tuning of upper-extremity forces. The primary aim of this study was to assess dual-task costs (DTC) in older adults with T2D through tasks involving attention and precision grip force …

Rapid Adaptation of Reactive Force Control When Lifting Objects
… lifts of the object. When lifting objects with a precision grip, people increase vertical load force to a target level that slightly exceeds the predicted weight. When the object is heavier than expected, the mismatch between expected and actual tactile signals associated with lift-off triggers a …

An Electrophysiological Examination of Visuomotor Activity Elicited by Visual Object Affordances
… different patterns of cortical activation for grip-type and lateralised affordances. These novel findings question the applicability of the label ‘visuomotor’ to grip-type affordance processing and suggest considerable revision to models of affordance. This thesis also offers a series of novel …
