No transfer between conditions in balance training regimes relying on tasks with different postural demands: Specificity effects of two different serious games

Highlights • We compare effects of two different video-game-based training devices on balance. • Cross-transfer effects between devices and transfer to quiet stance are examined. • Both training groups improve their performance in the trained tasks. • Training effects do not transfer to tasks with different postural demands. • Balance training effects on both devices are highly task-specific
