Effects of biofeedback on secondary-task response time and postural stability in older adults

Highlights ► We study the effects of biofeedback on secondary task performance during standing. ► Older adults use torso-based vibrotactile feedback to minimize their body sway. ► Biofeedback improves postural metrics even while a secondary task is performed. ► Biofeedback decreases performance on s...
