The Role of the Inertia Tensor in Kinesthesis
Critical Reviews™ in Biomedical Engineering, 2000We report experiments directed at the ability of humans to perceive the spatial orientation of occluded objects, to position an occluded limb relative to targets or directions in the environment, and to match the spatial orientation of occluded contralateral limbs.

Age-Related Changes in Upper Extremity Kinesthesis
Physical & Occupational Therapy In Geriatrics, 1996While age-related decreases in lower extremity kinesthesis have been reported, age-related changes in upper extremity kinesthesis are minimally documented. This study compares kinesthetic acuity and kinesthetic memory in younger and older adults and establishes test-retest reliability of the testing devices.

Kinesthesis in Relation to the Learning of Selected Motor Skills

Journal of motor behavior, 2013
A horizontal straight-arm movement was used to determine the relationship between the physical stimulus continuum and the psychological continuum of kinesthetic extent of arm movement. A power function with an exponent of 1.075 best described this relationship. In addition, to classify extent of movement as belonging to either a prothetic or metathetic

Scales of selected aspects of kinesthesis
Perception & Psychophysics, 1971Fifty male Ss made judgments of (1) thickness by finger span, (2) extent of arm movement, (3) heaviness of lifted weights, (4) force by handgrip, and (5) speed of arm movement. The method was fractionation: halving the magnitude of each stimulus. Comparisons were made in terms of the size of the exponent of the sensory scale.

Differential Errors of Kinesthesis Produced by Previous Limb Positions
Journal of Motor Behavior, 1974Reports of kinesthetic after-effects indicate that the position sense of the limb is labile. It was hypothesized that varying the starting positions of a limb would be an important factor in determining the post-treatment accuracy of kinesthesia.

Sound and kinesthesis in virtual environments
Proceedings of the 20th Pan-Hellenic Conference on Informatics, 2016Although virtual reality is a field that attracts research interest over the past years, certain aspects of the virtual environments are often overlooked. For example, the importance of sound in virtual environments is recognized but it remains rather vague, since the relation between virtual world and physical world sounds is not studied in detail. In

Cervical Range of Motion and Cephalic Kinesthesis
Spine, 2007Exploratory experimental design.To assess cervical range of motion (ROM) and ability to return the head to a neutral position in healthy subjects according to age and sex.Cervical ROM and ability to return the head to a neutral position have been studied, but no data on the influence of age and sex in this movement is available.We divided 232 healthy ...

Shifts in Kinesthesis through Time and after Active and Passive Movement
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1975The position sense of a stationary arm was investigated subsequent to an horizontally adductive movement with axis the shoulder joint. The right arm was the treated arm: it reached a test position actively, using minimal voluntary effort, or passively from each of 10 starting positions. The blindfolded S localized the index finger of the treated arm by

Oscillation parameters for modeling kinesthesis
Pollack Periodica, 2008In order to analyze the kinaesthesis of motion, the author used a ZEBRIS ultrasound-based measuring system with single active markers. The provocation test, when the plate is suddenly swiveled out with a provocation unit, can model the equilibration ability of the person being investigated.
