Appendix A. Terminology Explanation Table
Mental Fatigue | A mental state resulting from prolonged periods of cognitive activity, characterized by reduced mental efficiency, attentional control, and sensory integration. It can significantly affect motor tasks such as posture control and sensory reweighting processes. |
Postural Control | The ability of the human body to maintain stability and orientation during static and dynamic states, achieved through the integration of sensory inputs (vision, vestibular, and proprioceptive systems) and coordinated motor output. |
Center of Pressure (COP) | The point on a support surface where the resultant pressure of the body’s weight acts. It is widely used as an indicator of postural control, representing the dynamic interaction of sensory and motor systems. |
Sample Entropy (SampEn) | A nonlinear metric used to quantify the regularity and unpredictability of a time-series signal. Lower SampEn values indicate reduced complexity and adaptability of the system, while higher values represent increased variability and flexibility in control dynamics. |
Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) | A signal processing technique that decomposes time-series data into multiple frequency bands, enabling the analysis of non-stationary signals like COP. It allows for the identification of energy contributions from specific sensory domains (e.g., visual, proprioceptive). |
Frequency-Domain Indicators | Metrics used to analyze the power or energy of signal components across different frequency bands. In postural studies, specific frequency bands are associated with sensory systems: visual (0–0.1 Hz), vestibular (0.1–0.39 Hz), cerebellar (0.39–1.56 Hz), and proprioceptive (1.56–6.25 Hz). |
Sensory Reweighting | The adaptive process by which the nervous system adjusts the relative contribution of sensory inputs (e.g., vision, proprioception, vestibular) to maintain stability when one sensory modality is compromised or under cognitive load. |
Proprioceptive Perturbation | The disruption of proprioceptive input, often simulated by using an unstable surface (e.g., foam pad) to challenge the body’s ability to sense and respond to positional changes, which tests the compensatory role of other sensory systems. |
Visual Perturbation | A control condition in which visual input is partially or completely occluded (e.g., through closed-eye trials), leading to reliance on vestibular and proprioceptive systems for maintaining postural control. |
COP Velocity | A time-domain metric reflecting the average speed of COP movement. Increased velocity is often associated with destabilized postural control or compensation attempts to correct balance. |
COP Sway Area | The total area covered by the COP trajectory during a specific trial. A larger sway area indicates reduced postural stability or greater variability in maintaining balance. |
Entropy | A mathematical measure describing the complexity, randomness, or predictability of a system. In biomechanics, entropy offers insights into the adaptability and stability of motor control processes. |
Multi-Sensory Integration | The process by which the brain combines inputs from different sensory modalities (e.g., visual, proprioceptive, vestibular) to produce coordinated motor responses that maintain balance and stability. |
Fatigue-Induced Instability | The biomechanical and sensory–motor impairments in postural control caused by mental fatigue. These include increased sway, decreased adaptability (SampEn), and caused changes in sensory compensation patterns. |
Proprioceptive Energy Contribution | A frequency-domain parameter reflecting the proportion of energy in the proprioceptive frequency band (1.56–6.25 Hz). A reduction in this energy suggests impaired proprioceptive processing under conditions such as fatigue or perturbation. |
