Ageing changes the proprioceptive contribution to balance control under different types of mastoid vibration: A cross‐sectional study

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing‐related sensory deteriorations are significantly associated with poor balance control among older individuals, resulting in a higher risk of falling in a dark environment. In particular, the proprioceptive system plays a critical role in maintaining balance.

Pervasive Motor and Balance Difficulties in University Students With Dyslexia

open access: yesDyslexia, Volume 31, Issue 2, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Previous research suggests that dyslexic university students are unlikely to experience significant co‐occurring motor or balance difficulties and may represent instances of ‘pure’ dyslexia. However, the motor and balance measures used in previous studies have been limited in scope.
