Seated postural control in spinal cord injury

[摘要] This is a cross-sectional study for seated postural control in spinal cord injury. The generalgoal of the present study was to further understand seated postural control of individualswith SCI in various di erent conditions (e.g. manipulations of vision, proprioception, andtask constraints). The overall purpose was to test the predictions of the loss of complexityhypothesis and the loss of adaptability hypothesis on seated postural control of persons withand without SCI. The general hypothesis was that seated postural control of individualswith SCI would be inuenced by SCI injury level, sensory information (vision and proprioception)and task constraints. Three experiments were conducted to test the hypothesis.These experiments consisted of a series of manipulations of a sensory information (proprioception)and task demands. The results of the present research project leads
