Why a Balance Test Is Not the Same Thing as Testing Human Balance
Balance is not one sense, one organ, or one static score. It is a changing closed-loop interaction between sensory information, body mechanics, movement, prediction, environment, adaptation — and sometimes fear.
A balance test can measure something important very well.
The problem begins when we ask it to represent more than it actually measured.
Measurement of a component is not automatically measurement of system function.Paper III takes the Biological Representation series from Hearing and Vision into a much harder test: an adaptive system whose actions continually change its next inputs.
Don’t break the tool. Define its proper boundaries.
