This project is designed to: a) develop a new test called Sensory Integration in Walking (SensIWalk) Test which would allow us to evaluate sensory interaction process in locomotion assess whether Locomotor CTSIB and to investigate whether SensIWalk is a reliable test to evaluate sensory interaction in both young and older adults, b) evaluate the difference in sensory interaction and balance performance between standing and walking between both young and older adults, c) examine the changes in sensory interaction process under challenging conditions such as perturbations, dual-task, and when both are present between both young and older adults, d) examine the association between overall fall risk defined by the single-large perturbations and sensory interaction processes used during all the trials in both age groups. In order to achieve these aims, 10 trials will be conducted: Trial 1- Single-Large Perturbation in Standing Trial 2- Single-Large Perturbation in Walking Trial 3- Instrumented CTSIB Trial 4- Locomotor CTSIB Trial 5- Instrumented CTSIB + Perturbations Trial 6- Locomotor…
