Gaze behavior during locomotion through apertures: The effect of locomotion forms
Human Movement Science, 2009The present study investigated spatio-temporal patterns of gaze fixations for passing safely through apertures. We focused on whether fixation patterns changed in response to changes in locomotion forms. Eight participants approached and passed through a narrow doorway using the following locomotion forms: normal walking, walking while holding a 63-cm ...

Behavioral Dynamics of Human Locomotion
Ecological Psychology, 2004Gibson (1979) argued that “control lies not in the brain, but in the animalenvironment system.” To make good on this claim, we must show how adaptive behavior emerges from the interactions of an agent with a structured environment guided by occurrent information.

Collective Locomotion as Collective Behavior
American Sociological Review, 1986Milling clusters, surges within gatherings, street actions, demonstration marches, and state processions are forms of social behavior with which we mark points along a continuum of collective locomotion. A theoretical framework, field observations, measurement criteria and procedures are presented to systematically describe variations in the complexity

Modification of Locomotive Behavior in a Severely Disturbed Psychotic
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1967Social reinforcement of self-wheeling by a psychotic effectively increased rate of self-wheeling more than 100% over the baseline of the operant.

Modification of the initiation of locomotion inHermissenda: Behavioral analysis
Brain Research, 1983We have examined the effect of a conditioning procedure on various components of visually guided locomotion in Hermissenda. Temporally specific stimulation of the visual system and gravity detecting system (statocysts) with light and rotation produced long-term changes in locomotor behavior.

Fast behavioral locomotion with layered navigation meshes
Proceedings of the ACM SIGGRAPH Symposium on Interactive 3D Graphics and Games, 2018We address the problem of efficient navigation planning for virtual characters with multiple locomotion behaviors. One main difficulty in this problem is the need to rely on expensive collision detection computations which typically lead to methods unsuitable for realtime applications.

A mathematical model of adaptive behavior in quadruped locomotion
Biological Cybernetics, 1998Locomotion involves repetitive movements and is often executed unconsciously and automatically. In order to achieve smooth locomotion, the coordination of the rhythms of all physical parts is important. Neurophysiological studies have related that basic rhythms are produced in the spinal network called, the central pattern generator (CPG), where some ...

The Behavioral Ecology of Locomotion
2004One of the cornerstones of modern evolutionary biology is the insight that an individual that is more tailored to his environment should have a higher survival and reproductive potential than his less adapted neighbors. Behavioral ecology attempts to explain behaviors as adaptive, or not, only in particular ecological contexts.

Effects of LSD on exploratory behavior and locomotion in rats
Behavioral Biology, 1973Locomotion, preferences for novelty (exploration), rearing, and sitting motionless were observed in hooded and albino rats of both sexes tested in an exploration box (comprising novel and familiar halves) either 10 or 30 min after ip administration of saline or one of three doses of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD). LSD had no effect on preferences for

A locomotion sensor for recording some stereotyped behavior of the rat
Neuropharmacology, 1981Abstract A capacitance sensor can be used for recording an animal's position on a test platform. This method of recording was found useful in correlating electrical brain activity with stereotyped behavior.
