Optimal movement control reflects a combination of both feedback and feedforward processes. However, as motor control evolves, feedforward mechanisms become prevailing respect to feedback-based movements, and less reliance on sensory information leads to a decreased number of corrections in the trajectory. In subjects with Down syndrome (DS), the study of the wrist’s trajectory during an arm-tapping...
Slow movements and atypical patterns of muscle activation are well-known features of Down Syndrome (DS). Some studies attribute these features to a deficit in voluntary motor commands and preprogramming of actions, that lead subjects with DS to be more reliant on feedback control. In the present study, we evaluated the movement strategies of 13 adult subjects with DS and of 22 age-matched controls...
