Age-Related Differences in Corticospinal Excitability and Anticipatory Postural Adjustments of the Trunk

Anticipatory postural adjustments (APAs) are a feedforward mechanism for the maintenance of postural stability and are delayed in old adults. We previously showed in young adults that APAs of the trunk induced by a fast shoulder movement were mediated, at least in part, by a cortical mechanism. Howe...
