Contextual interference during adaptation to asymmetric split-belt treadmill walking results in transfer of unique gait mechanics

When humans make errors in stepping during walking due to a perturbation, they may adapt their gait as a way to correct for discrepancies between predicted and actual sensory feedback. This study sought to determine if increased contextual interference during acquisition of a novel asymmetric gait p...
