Mirror movements in normal adult subjects

摘要: Intensity of mirror movements occurring under specific task conditions in normal adults was investigated using a finger flexion task. Subjects were asked to sustain target pressures different fingers. Greater movement recorded when the weaker, small either hand performed The pressure which subjects did not influence amount exhibited by males or females, even though higher forces required significantly greater percentage total strength. On average, same quantity as female subjects, despite force requirements representing for them smaller Moreover, right experimental tasks, less than left active. Thus, showed stronger movements. findings consistent with previous research children although nonsignificant effects gender and unexpected need be examined further. It appears that, while requirement does magnitude movement, it is principle determinant.
