The relationship between postural stability and cybersickness: it's complicated - an experimental trial assessing practical implications of cybersickness etiology.

Physiology and Behavior, 2021
Virtual reality (VR) is known to cause cybersickness, and studies report that deteriorations of postural stability coincides with the onset cybersickness. It is unclear whether these deteriorations are the cause or a consequence of cybersickness.

Stabilizing Posture Through Imagery

International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis, 2014
Abstract In the general population, suppression of vision modulates body sway by increasing the center of pressure (CoP) velocity, while a light fingertip touch reduces the area of the CoP displacement in blindfolded subjects. This study assessed whether imagined fixation and fingertip touch differentially stabilize posture in subjects with high (highs)

Postural stability

Hearing Balance and Communication, 2019
Purpose: Dizziness is the most common complaint of patients over 65 years consulting a physician. Presbyacusis affects 65% of Canadians aging 70–79. The inner ear is responsible for both hearing and postural stability. However, the interactions between auditory information and the maintenance of postural balance have not been ...

Impact of Virtual Reality–Generated Construction Environments at Different Heights on Postural Stability and Fall Risk

Workplace Health & Safety, 2020
Background Falls due to postural instability are common in construction environments especially from a height. The purpose of the study was to investigate the impact of virtual reality (VR)-generated environments at different virtual heights on postural ...

Postural Stability in Shooters

ORL, 1990
Ten competition shooters were tested during simulated race using the force platform technique to investigate the effect of training on postural stability. The shooters were tested at 30-min intervals during a race simulating actual race conditions. Sway velocity was calculated during 27-second periods.

POSTURAL STABILITY AND COLLES' FRACTURE

Age and Ageing, 1987
We have tested the hypothesis that the Colles' fracture is due, not simply to bone loss at the menopause, but to postural instability in a subset of postmenopausal women such that they are rendered more liable to fall. We have measured bone mass by dual photon spinal densitometry and single photon wrist densitometry and measured postural sway in 19 ...

Trunk position sense, postural stability, and spine posture in fibromyalgia

Rheumatology International, 2019
This study aimed to investigate trunk position sense, postural stability, and spine posture in women with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). Fifteen (15) women with FMS and age- and gender-matched fifteen (15) healthy controls were included. Trunk position sense as indicated by trunk reposition errors (TRE) and spine posture (thoracic and lumbar curvature ...

Postural stability in the dog

American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1965
Positional stability in quietly standing dogs has been evaluated in terms of force records from individual feet and the position of the center of gravity. All four dogs carried approximately 60% of their total weight on their anterior feet and roughly 50% of their weight on each side.
