Body Sway Stabilization in Human Posture
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1990Electromyographic (emg) responses and joint movements of the leg were analysed in subjects standing with eyes closed on a sinusoidally moving treadmill (0.16 Hz or 0.33 Hz, amplitude 33 cm). Activity in antagonistic leg muscles was reciprocally modulated, with a predominant gastrocnemius activation during deceleration of forward movement and tibialis ...

Human Body Posturizer (H.B.P.): new orthosis for improving postural dynamics
IJAE : Italian Journal of Anatomy and Embryology : 116, 1 Supplement, 2011, 2011Introduction. Posture is the result of many complex processes involving the entire body in relationship with different environmental changes (Penha P.J.,2005). Interaction between the different anatomical districts occurs at different levels and it is influenced by different initial conditions.

Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Annual Meeting, 2004
Observational methods have been widely used for identifying posture-related risks in industry. In those methods, a single score of postural load for a working posture is required for evaluating the level of corrective actions, on the basis of each body-parts stressfulness evaluated.

Effects of Hand Posture, Breathing Type, Arm Posture and Body Posture on Hand Errors
International Journal of Occupational Safety and Ergonomics, 2012This study consisted of 2 experiments. Experiment 1 examined the effects of hand posture, arm posture and body posture on hand error, while experiment 2 examined the effects of hand posture, breathing type and body posture on hand error. This study showed that more hand errors occurred in the nondominant hand, extended arm, normal breathing and ...

Classification algorithms for body posture
2017 IEEE 5th International Conference on Serious Games and Applications for Health (SeGAH), 2017Bad posture while working or playing videogames can affect our life quality and impose negative economic consequences over time. There's raising concern in companies regarding worker's wellness, many adopting preventive measures. Specialized training in posture is important to prevent occupational activities risks and to foster health promotion.

Are body dimensions affecting working body posture?
International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics, 1996Abstract Correlations between anthropometric traits and body posture traits have been studied in males and females performing a task with predominance of static load in the sitting and standing position. It was found that body dimensions influence posture angles to a low degree only.

Body Posture and Religious Attitudes
Archive for the Psychology of Religion, 2015One hundred and twenty-seven college students were recruited for an experimental investigation of the effect of body posture on religious attitudes. Roughly half of the participants were placed in lower, contractive body postures while the other half were placed in higher, expansive body postures. After five minutes in these postures, all were asked to
