Figure 5

Changes in step length asymmetry during adapt 1. Mean curves across participants within each group ± SE are shown. The curves are truncated in length to match the participant that took the fewest strides during each condition. Data points immediately following the curves show the SLA during the plateau (mean ± SE of the last 30 strides) for each group. Stepping behaviors in each group are different, reflecting the varied learning parameters in this initial learning block. Note that the Fast 2:1 (a), Slow 2:1 (b), and Pulse 1.5:1 (c) groups exhibit similar magnitudes of asymmetry initially, while the Fast 1.5:1 group (d) shows a smaller initial asymmetry. Additionally, each group plateaued to different levels of asymmetry by the end of adapt 1.
