Age effect on kinematic variables of stepping after multidirectional disturbances. In R. A. Silva, P. Baylina, F. Q. Vieira, C. Barrias, M. Rubim, T. Coelho, C. Prudêncio, & Â.

Therefore stepping strategies against external disturbances, may have different characteristics between individuals of different age groups. Objectives: To analyze step length, step average speed and step latency on forward-backward disturbances, as well as stepping strategies after lateral disturbances. The relationship between lower limb dominance and response limb was also analyzed.engconference object
