Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Standing balance behaviour: Magnitude and variability whole-body motion in different balance tasks. Vestibular-evoked balance responses: Presence and amplitudes of vestibular-evoked balance responses. Visually-evoked balance responses: Presence and amplitudes of visually-evoked balance responses. Perceptual detections: Perceptual thresholds to detecting motion from different sensory cues. Metabolic cost: indirect calorimetric gas exchange measurement to estimate metabolic cost of standing balance | — |
