The attached data file contains data from all completed participants in the reported experiment. On each trial the participant stood on one foot for 20 seconds. Failed trials (when the participant had to place both feet on the ground to remain balanced) are not included. Such failed trials were repeated until a successful trial was obtained. The position of a light on the participant's head was recorded in three dimensions.
- Participant: Participant ID number
- Block: Trial number
- X_Light: X-position of light placed on participant's head. X is also consistent with the left-right body axis of the participant.
- Y_Light: Y-position of light placed on participant's head. Y is also consistent with the gravity axis.
- Z_Light: Z-position of light placed on participant's head. Z is also consistent with the front-back body axis of the participant.
- Time: Elapsed time in trial.
- Eyes: 0=eyes closed; 1=eyes open
- Environment: 0=virtual, 1=real
- Distance: Viewing distance; 0=near, 1=far
