摘要

When searching for a friend in a crowd or waiting for a loved one at the train station, we often rely heavily on their gait to identify them. The movements of the human body have generated much research interest, and biological motion has been used to study these displacements. Biological motion is described by points at each joint and provides a representation of an individual during a particular action (walking, playing golf, tennis, etc.).;Size is one of the defining characteristics of biological motion patterns, and yet, has been overlooked. Most work has used small patterns, corresponding to a person moving at a distance of 16 m from the observer, but much of our social interactions occur at distances closer than this. Furthermore, our representations of the environment can change as we age, but studies assessing the effects of age on the perception of biological motion have yielded inconsistent results. Therefore, using a fully immersive virtual-reality environment, our first goal was to evaluate the impact of distance between observer and pattern, on biological motion perception in both young and older adults. Results indicate that identifying walking direction becomes difficult at distances closer than 4 m for older observers, whereas performance is maintained in younger participants at all distances further away than 1m. This suggests that older participants exhibit difficulty when information must be integrated across a large expanse of their visual field, which could impede them in any situation where interactions occur within a distance of 4m.;Much work has suggested further, that older participants adapt to complex environments with greater difficulty. The second goal was to minimize this age-related change to the integration of complex scenes, by using a task devised to both train and assess such integration processes: Multiple Object Tracking in 3-dimentional space, or 3D-MOT. 3D-MOT consists of tracking several moving objects of interest, among similarly moving distractors. In a 3-D virtual-reality environment, we measured the maximum speed at which the objects could travel, for younger and older observers to complete the task with no errors. Initial results indicated that older observers' performance was worse than that of younger observers. However, after several weeks of training, older observers' performance improved and became similar to that of untrained younger observers.;Finally, our third goal was to evaluate, for these 3D-MOT-trained older observers, the effect of training on biological motion perception at distances of 16 and 4m in virtual space. Findings indicate that performance at 4 m, for older observers who received 3D-MOT training, improved significantly to reach 16 m levels. This suggests that training of this type can reduce age-related perceptuo-cognitive deficits and can possibly aid the elderly in their daily travels.
