This study was done to examine age-stage (preschool Children, young adults, and elderly people) differences in the center-of-pressure Sway using body-sway factors (unit-time sway, front-back sway, left-right sway, and high frequency-band power), power-spectrum distribution, and relative accumulation of power frequency (25%, 50%, and 75% RAPF) of the center-of-pressure spectrum. The center-of-pressure movement for 1 min. was measured twice using Anima's stabilometer. Data-sampling frequency was set at 20 Hz. Significant age-stage differences were found for 3 factors except for left-right sway, which was larger for preschool children and elderly than for young adults. The power spectrum of body sway in any age-stage was noted mainly In low frequency bands. A marked age-stage difference was found at 75% RAPF Body-sway characteristics in each age-stage differ, and differences Of postural-sway frequency are marked in the low frequency bands.
