ABSTRACT Kohen–Ratz described in autistic children a particular behaviour of posturographic findings that he named “Paradox Effect” : to be more stable when standing on foam pads with eyes closed as compared to solid surface with eyes open. He correlated this “paradox” phenomenon to the involvement of cerebellar controls. The aim of this paper is […]

After 21 (mean) […]
