Imagine you are standing at a crosswalk and the pedestrian light turns green. You begin to walk but a car speeds by and you have to take a step back to avoid it. How does this process work in behavior and the brain?

In the "InSiSt-Walk" project, we aim to understand these mechanisms by examining inhibition in various contexts of movement (i.e., sitting, standing, and walking) in typically developing adults and those with ADHD. A series of multi-modal studies will examine inhibition across movement contexts through the lens of self-report criteria, objective motor tests, behavioral and cognitive task performance, gait analysis, and mobile EEG measurement.
