Carrying Asymmetric Loads While Walking on a Treadmill Interferes with Lower Limb Coordination
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of different load carriage modes on coordinative patterns in the lower extremities during walking. Twenty-five university students walked on a treadmill at their preferred pace under three different load conditions: symmetric load (5% of body mass in messenger bags on each shoulder hanging vertically and against the hips), asymmetric load 1 (10% of body mass in a messenger bag on one shoulde…
Recalling fearful memories modifies approach and avoidance behavior based on spatial context
Motor responses are more efficient when there is a match (or congruency) between the motivational properties of an emotional state and the distance altering characteristics of the movement being executed to the emotion-eliciting stimulus. However, the role of spatial context in shaping motivational orientations to approach and avoid, particularly during whole-body movement tasks, remains less understood. We sought to narrow this knowledge gap by …
Autobiographically recalled emotional states impact forward gait initiation as a function of motivational direction
The impact of self-generated affective states on self-initiated motor behavior remains unspecified. The purpose of the current study was to determine how self-generated emotional states impact forward gait initiation. Participants recalled past emotional experiences (anger, fear, happy, sad, and neutral), "relived" those emotional memories before gait initiation (GI), and then walked ∼4 m across the laboratory floor. Kinetic and kinematic data re…
Diving Below the Surface of Progressive Disability: Considering Compensatory Strategies as Evidence of Sub-Clinical Disability
OBJECTIVES: To provide a comprehensive review regarding the role of activity and participation compensations within the disablement process, identify directions for future research, and discuss the implications of compensation pertaining to public health initiatives aimed at preventing and reversing disability. METHOD: This article evaluated how using compensatory strategies to cope with functional deficits reveals important transitions within th…
Body Esteem and Self-Objectification Among Collegiate Female Athletes: Does Societal Objectification Make a Difference
The purpose of our study was to use select constructs from objectification theory to investigate how society’s sexual objectification of female athletes is related to differences in body esteem and self-objectification among collegiate female athletes and non-athletes. Using a cross-sectional survey, we sampled three groups at a Division I National Collegiate Athletic Association university: 322 non-athletes, 58 athletes participating in sports t…
Active control of approach-oriented posture is influenced by emotional reactions
Emotions adaptively prepare the body to interact with the environment through execution of motor actions, but the extent to which emotional states modulate force control during directionally targeted movement tasks remains unknown. We sought to determine how emotions influence active control of approach-oriented posture. Participants (N = 43; 25 females) stood on a force plate and displaced their center of pressure (COP) anteriorly to a target at…
Emotional state affects the initiation of forward gait
The aim of the current study was to determine the extent to which pleasant and unpleasant emotional states impact the initiation of forward gait. Participants initiated gait and walked for several steps following the presentation of low arousing pleasant, high arousing pleasant, low arousing unpleasant, high arousing unpleasant, and neutral pictures. Reaction time, displacement, and velocity of the center of pressure (COP) trajectory, and length …
I'm Cured But: Perceptions of Illness Following Treatment
The current qualitative research studied representations of illness posttreatment from a heart transplant group, a panic disorder group, and a tic disorder group. All three groups were preoccupied with perceptions about the impact of the illness, perception of self and the perception of how others view the ill person. The heart transplant group seem to adopt an active style of coping compared to the panic disorder group who presented a more passi…
Emotional states alter force control during a feedback occluded motor task
The aim of the current experiment was to determine the extent to which pleasant and unpleasant emotional states altered the ability of men and women to control force production on a feedback occluded motor task that was not direction specific. Participants produced a precision pinch grip with visual feedback. After 5 s, feedback was occluded and replaced with a pleasant, unpleasant, or neutral image. The amplitude, variability, and structure of f…
Perceptual-Cognitive Expertise in Sport: A Meta-Analysis
Research focusing on perceptual-cognitive skill in sport is abundant. However, the existing qualitative syntheses of this research lack the quantitative detail necessary to determine the magnitude of differences between groups of varying levels of skills, thereby limiting the theoretical and practical contribution of this body of literature. We present a meta-analytic review focusing on perceptual-cognitive skill in sport ( N = 42 studies, 388 ef…
Emotional state and initiating cue alter central and peripheral motor processes
Evidence indicates that voluntary and involuntary movements are altered by affective context as well as the characteristics of an initiating cue. The purpose of this study was to determine the contribution of central and peripheral mechanisms to this phenomenon. During the presentation of pleasant, unpleasant, neutral, and blank images, participants (N = 33) responded to auditory stimuli (startle, 107 dB startle or 80 dB tone) by initiating a bim…
