Do older adults synchronize their strides to different visual stimuli?

This abstract has open access
Abstract Summary
There is a temporal structure of stride-to-stride fluctuations found in healthy gait. However, older adults lose this temporal structure during walking. This can be counteracted through the use of external cueing that contains the temporal properties of pink-noise. This cueing mechanism can be used to restore the temporal properties of walking in older adults to levels similar to those seen in healthy young adults.
