To Walk or Not to Walk? The Hierarchy of Walking Needs [PDF]

Environment and Behavior, 2005
The multitude of quality of life problems associated with declining walking rates has impelled researchers from various disciplines to identify factors related to this behavior change. Currently, this body of research is in need of a transdisciplinary, multilevel theoretical model that can help explain howindividual, group, regional, and physical ...

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.

The Walkbook: Recipes for Walking and Wellbeing [PDF]

, 2022
Our public survey showed that more people walked during COVID-19, and walked more frequently. However, some people walked less, or their walking reduced over the various lockdowns. Many barriers or challenges to walking were identified by respondents.

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 ...

Walking the walk [PDF]

Current Biology, 2005
Walking upright on two legs is a trait unique to humans amongst our ape cousins. There has been much controversy and uncertainty about when human ancestors evolved an upright gait, but a new study suggests that Australopithecus afarensis, 3.2million years ago, already walked this way.The team, led by William Sellers at Loughborough University with ...
