Area of Science:

  • Biomechanics and Motor Control
  • Human Performance and Exercise Science

Background:

  • The Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT) is widely used to assess dynamic standing balance.
  • Response time (RT) is a crucial cognitive factor in postural control, but its integration with SEBT, especially under fatigue, is underexplored.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate response times during a modified SEBT (mSEBT).
  • To examine the impact of muscular fatigue on response times during the mSEBT.

Main Methods:

  • Sixteen healthy adults performed an mSEBT with an integrated response time task (Blazepod™).
  • Participants completed the mSEBT before and after a low-intensity fatigue protocol.
  • A 2x2x3 repeated measures ANOVA analyzed differences in mean RT across trials, fatigue states, and reach legs.

Main Results:

  • Response time significantly improved across testing trials (p = 0.023), with Trial 3 showing faster RT than Trial 1 (p = 0.021).
  • No significant differences in RT were observed between fatigue states or between the dominant and non-dominant reach legs.

Conclusions:

  • Response times during the mSEBT improve with practice, suggesting a learning effect.
  • Further research should explore extended familiarization and more intense fatigue states to better understand RT dynamics in the mSEBT.
