Higher cortical beta oscillatory power before balance perturbations is associated with worse balance in older adults with Parkinson’s Disease, but not in age-matched older adults

Elevated beta activity is hypothesized to reflect reduced flexibility in updating motor and sensory states, which may impair the rapid integration of sensory information required for balance. Therefore, we predicted that higher cortical beta power immediately before balance perturbations would be associated with poorer...
