Abstract
This pilot study examines whether frontal alpha asymmetry (FAA) tracks real-time sensory reweighting during postural control. Four adults completed graded balance conditions while EEG and biomechanical data were recorded. We expect FAA to shift with increasing sensory challenge, establishing passive biomarkers for sensory-motor integration development in neurotypical and neurodivergent populations.
