- Title
Errors in postural preparation lead to increased choice reaction times for step initiation in older adults.

Cohen, Rajal G; Nutt, John G; Horak, Fay B
- Abstract
This study asked whether older adults were more likely than younger adults to err in the initial direction of their anticipatory postural adjustment (APA) prior to a step (indicating a motor program error), whether initial motor program errors accounted for reaction time differences for step initiation, and whether initial motor program errors were linked to inhibitory failure.
