Automatic postural responses are scaled from the association between online feedback and feedforward control
Teixeira, L.A., Azzi, N.M., Ávila de Oliveira, J., Ribeiro de Souza, C., da Silva Rezende, L., and Coelho, D.B.
Eur. J. Neurosci. (2019)

In this paper the authors studied the contributions of feedback and feedforward control during postural perturbations in human participants. In brief, it shows that automatic postural responses are scaled according to perturbation magnitude (feedback) and postural responses from preceding perturbations (feedforward control). —RM
