Defining Continuous Walking Events in Free-Living Environments: Mind the Gap (2022)
Journal Article
Gbadamosi, A. R., Griffiths, B. N., Clarke-Cornwell, A. M., & Granat, M. H. (2022). Defining Continuous Walking Events in Free-Living Environments: Mind the Gap. Sensors, 22(5), 1720. https://doi.org/10.3390/s22051720

In free-living environments, continuous walking can be challenging to achieve without encountering interruptions, making it difficult to define a continuous walking event. While limited research has been conducted to define a continuous walking event... Read More about Defining Continuous Walking Events in Free-Living Environments: Mind the Gap.

Selecting educational apps for preschool children : how useful are website app rating systems? (2022)
Journal Article
Taylor, G., Kolak, J., Bent, E., & Monaghan, P. (2022). Selecting educational apps for preschool children : how useful are website app rating systems?. British Journal of Educational Technology, 53(5), 1262-1282. https://doi.org/10.1111/bjet.13199

In the present paper, we assess whether website rating systems are useful for selecting educational apps for preschool age children. We selected the 10 highest scoring and 10 lowest scoring apps for 2–4-year-olds from two widely used websites (Good A...

Improved ability to achieve single leg stance increases gait efficiency following single leg stance intervention in adults post brain injury (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Purpose: Acquired brain injury (ABI) survivors rate walking impairments as their most severe limitation. Following ABI adults walk 60 cm/s slower than healthy adults. Following ABI reduced gait speed correlates with reduced single leg stance (SLS) wh...
