A Base of support (BoS) and B margin of stability (MoS) during the tripping task (TRM) for single- (n = 14) and multiple-steppers (n = 18). Data is shown for baseline walking (Baseline), at touchdown (TD) of the perturbation (Pert) as well as for the 6 recovery steps following the perturbation (RECO1-RECO6) for the two subgroups. Values are presented as means with SD error bars. *: significant different BoS (first three recovery steps) and MoS (first four recovery steps) when comparing two consecutive steps (p < 0.001)
