Illustration of the balance reaction task. Participants stood on the treadmill, and they received anterior and posterior treadmill-belt accelerations that perturbed standing balance. Accelerations were incrementally increased until thresholds that consistently elicited a step were established. These single-stepping thresholds (SST) were determined in the anterior and posterior directions (i.e. the direction of the induced fall).
