Do green-blocking glasses enhance the nonvisual effects of white polychromatic light?

Journal of Physiological Anthropology, 2018
Background It is well known that light containing the blue component stimulates the intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) and plays a role in melatonin suppression and pupillary constriction.

Spatial navigation ability is associated with the assessment of smoothness of driving during changing lanes in older drivers

Journal of Physiological Anthropology, 2020
Background Age-related changes affect driving ability, including the smoothness of driving. This operation requires the use of both allocentric strategies (based on world-centered representations) and egocentric strategies (based on self-centered ...

Differences of muscle co-contraction of the ankle joint between young and elderly adults during dynamic postural control at different speeds

Journal of Physiological Anthropology, 2017
Background Agonist and antagonist muscle co-contractions during motor tasks are greater in the elderly than in young adults. During normal walking, muscle co-contraction increases with gait speed in young adults, but not in elderly adults.
