NEW PERSPECTIVES ON POSTURAL CONTROL IN CHILDREN AND ADULTS
… children as a control group (HC). During static posturography, participants stood quietly for 30 s with their eyes open (EO) and closed (EC), while during dynamic assessment participants walked barefoot, choosing their speed. The RA-2 included seventeen children who performed "voluntary" GI. This …
