Walking the walk: a phenomenological study of long distance walking [PDF]

Journal of Applied Sport Psychology, 2011
Evidence suggests that regular walking can elicit significant psychological benefits although little evidence exists concerning long distance walking. The purpose of this study was to provide detailed accounts of the experiences of long distance walkers.

Walking the Walk [PDF]

Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, 2006
Of the dozens of books about teaching and learning that I have read over the past decade, none has reverberated in my thoughts like Learner-Centered Teaching. This book confronted me with the great distance between my personal definition and practice of “learner-centered teaching” and the potential of a deeper, more authentic learner-centered approach.

EEG hyperscanning in motor rehabilitation: a position paper

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2021
Studying the human brain during interpersonal interaction allows us to answer many questions related to motor control and cognition. For instance, what happens in the brain when two people walking side by side begin to change their gait and match ...

A Deep CNN Framework for Neural Drive Estimation From HD-EMG Across Contraction Intensities and Joint Angles

IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2022
Objective: Previous studies have demonstrated promising results in estimating the neural drive to muscles, the net output of all motoneurons that innervate the muscle, using high-density electromyography (HD-EMG) for the purpose of interfacing with ...

Peripheral electrical stimulation to reduce pathological tremor: a review

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2021
Interventions to reduce tremor in essential tremor (ET) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) clinical populations often utilize pharmacological or surgical therapies. However, there can be significant side effects, decline in effectiveness over time, or clinical

Human-machine-human interaction in motor control and rehabilitation: a review

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2021
Background Human-human (HH) interaction mediated by machines (e.g., robots or passive sensorized devices), which we call human-machine-human (HMH) interaction, has been studied with increasing interest in the last decade.

Are older people putting themselves at risk when using their walking frames? [PDF]

, 2020
Background Walking aids are issued to older adults to prevent falls, however, paradoxically their use has been identified as a risk factor for falling. To prevent falls, walking aids must be used in a stable manner, but it remains unknown to what extent ...

John’s walk

Advances in Applied Probability, 2022
AbstractWe present an affine-invariant random walk for drawing uniform random samples from a convex body $\mathcal{K} \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ that uses maximum-volume inscribed ellipsoids, known as John’s ellipsoids, for the proposal distribution.
