Age-specific walking speed during locomotor adaptation leads to more generalization across contexts.

This study shows that older adults generalize walking patterns more at slower speeds, while younger adults generalize more at faster speeds during locomotor adaptation.

Older adults generalize their movements across walking contexts more than young during gradual and abrupt split-belt walking

This study compares movement generalization in older and young adults during gradual and abrupt split-belt walking, finding older adults generalize more regardless of perturbation type.

Augmenting propulsion demands during split-belt walking increases locomotor adaptation in the asymmetric motor system

This study shows that increasing propulsion demands during split-belt walking enhances motor adaptation and symmetry in stroke survivors.
