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.

Vision and Kinesthesis in Spatial Short-Term Memory
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1981This investigation examined the effects of different localizing cues on the precision with which subjects can recall the position of a target in space. The availability of the cues—vision, kinesthesis, or both—was varied during both learning and recall. Subjects (age range 26 to 58 yr.) placed the stimulus or watched it being placed.

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

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.

Vision and Kinesthesis in Accuracy of Hand Movement
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1989Two experiments examined the accuracy with which college students were able to touch a target when knowledge of the target location had been gained either visually, kinesthetically, or by both modalities. In all but “baseline” trials, individuals were not allowed to guide the hand visually and so relied on kinesthetic cues during movement to the ...

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.

Adult Performance on the Southern California Kinesthesis and Tactile Perception Tests
The American Journal of Occupational Therapy, 1981Abstract Researchers and clinicians working with various adult populations have no practical, complete, reliable, and valid method of measuring the tactile and kinesthetic functions of their clients. This study gathers preliminary normative information on the performance of adults on the Southern California Kinesthesia and Tactile Tests.

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.

Herstel van de kinesthesie in de schouder
Stimulus, 1998Het vermogen van iemand om een extremiteit in een bepaalde stand te brengen zonder visuele hulp hangt af van de kinesthetische sensibiliteit van die persoon (McCloskey, 1978). De receptoren van dit sensorische systeem worden aangetroffen in de gewrichten, spieren en huid en leveren informatie ten aanzien van de beweging en de stand van elk lichaamsdeel.
