Professor Michael Wade, Ph.D., delivered a paper and poster presentation at the XVII International Conference on Perception and Action (ICPA), in Estoril, Portugal. The title of the paper was, “Atypical motor development: A case of disrupted perception/action synergy,” and the poster, “Learning to look at the horizon.”
The paper presentation was based on an atypical group of individuals and their postural stability when given a larger task load. The poster presentation was part of Dr. Tom Stoffregen’s research on postural stability at sea; investigating how individuals adapt to changes in spatial magnitude such as experience at sea.
