MoSL and MoSR for healthy young adults during straight walking, step turn and spin turn. Curves and shadows represent mean and 95% bootstrap CBs. Horizontal colorbars display areas where significant differences (p < 0.05) exist (A: step vs straight; B: spin vs straight; C: step vs spin). Meanwhile, intensity of colorbar indicates difference size from small (blue) to large (red). Color vertical lines show key events: heel strike (HS), toe off (TO), mid stance (MS). Results of time normalization are: HS1—0, MS1—22%, HS2—51%, TO1—61%, MS2—66%, HS3—100%, TO2—111%, MS3—122%, HS4—151%, TO3—162%. For step turn, MoSL was in line with straight walking before MS2 then fell to bottom in depart. MoSR tracked straight walking before MS1 then increased much in turn phase and finally fluctuated around straight walking. For spin turn, MoSL was smaller than straight walking and step turn before MS2 then jumped to a peak in late turn phase and finally varied in concert with straight walking during depart. MoSR was slightly larger than straight walking and step turn before MS1, then plunged to negative bottom in turn phase and finally showed an upturn less than straight walking and step turn in depart
