Time constants representing adaptation rate (top row of panels) and exponential fits (bottom row of panels) for Normal 3, BWS, and VISION trials. BWS and VISION represent bodyweight support and visually constricted trials, respectively. In all panels, blue data represents old and red data represents young adults. For exponential fits, solid lines represent group mean and shaded areas represent standard deviations. We limited the x-axis of exponential fits to the participant with the fewest number of steps taken during the split-belt phase (done for visual purposes only; all quantitative analyses were conducted on each participant’s full data). We found no effects of age, sensory condition, or their interaction on rates of locomotor adaptation.
