Montoya-Ortiz, Jaylie Denise | Changes to walking trajectories to avoid altitude-related threats | Walking in complex environments demands changes in locomotor behavior. Despite knowledge of how altitude threats, such as walking at high heights, affect spatiotemporal measures of gait, it is unclear how individuals select walking trajectories when there are altitude threats. The purpose of this st... | | 2022 |
