Background: Hand grip strength is a standard method to measure impairment, which is a component of body
function of high importance. Feedback appears to affect the performance of hand grip strength.
Objectives: To determine the effects on peak grip force with the use of visual feedback, visual conflicted feedback and
without feedback, using a hand held dynamometer.
Study design: One group repeated measures design.
Case presentation: Data was collected from healthy subjects aged from 21 to 35 on the effect of feedback conditions.
Subjects received counter-balanced block design test their peak grip force with three conditions, visual feedback, visual
conflicted feedback and without feedback, on the same day. Hand held dynamometer was used for measuring and
recording the peak grip f.. View More»
