DOI: 10.1007/s00221-018-5222-6
Abstract: When reaching towards an object while standing, one’s hand responds very quickly to visual perturbations such as the target being displaced or the background moving. Such responses require postural adjustments. When the background moves, its… read more here.

Age-related differences in postural adjustments during limb movement and motor imagery in young and older adults
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Experimental Brain Research"
DOI: 10.1007/s00221-020-05751-9
Abstract: Recent research has shown that systematic postural adjustments occur during periods of manual motor imagery (MI), but the timing (anticipatory or reactive) and directionality (against or in the direction of arm extension) of these postural… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiomech.2020.109910
Abstract: Dynamical phenomena in the postural chain occur before, during and after the voluntary movement. These phenomena correspond to anticipatory (APA), simultaneous (SPA), and consecutive (CPA) postural adjustments, respectively. APA and, more recently, CPA, have been… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2022.03.005
Abstract: Fear of falling increases conscious control of balance and postural threat warrants accurate anticipatory motor commands for keeping a safe body posture. This study examines the anticipatory (APAs) and compensatory (CPAs) postural adjustments generated in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-48758-1
Abstract: There is a current claim that humans are able to effortlessly detect others’ hidden mental state by simply observing their movements and transforming the visual input into motor knowledge to predict behaviour. Using a classical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/00222895.2021.2024491
Abstract: Abstract Background: To minimize the potential postural disturbance induced by external or self-initiated perturbations, humans generate anticipatory postural adjustments based on their perceived consequences of the body disturbance. Lifting is a common activity that induces… read more here.

Anticipatory postural adjustments and spatial organization of motor cortex: evidence of adaptive compensations in healthy older adults.
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Journal of neurophysiology"
DOI: 10.1152/jn.00428.2018
Abstract: During anticipated postural perturbations induced by limb movement, the central nervous system generates anticipatory postural adjustments (APAs) in the trunk and hip musculature to minimize disturbances to equilibrium. Age-related changes in functional organization of the… read more here.
