Outline of Final Research Achievements

To examine how postural control adapts and aging affects which aspect of postural control, we investigated learning effects and aging effects on a repetitive reaching task, ball catching task and somatosensory system stimulating task in younger and elderly. The results of this study showed that changes in posture control may affect motor learning, the ankle joint motion and muscle activities of gastrocnemius are influenced by aging and somatosensory system strongly influences improvement in balance ability.
