Journal ArticleDOI
Passive visco-elastic properties of the structures spanning the human elbow joint
Keith C. Hayes,Herbert Hatze +1 more
TL;DR: Recommendations have been made for reducing unwanted myotatic reflex activity while using the “suspension method” to obtain estimates of various biomechanical parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of fatiguing isometric exercise upon achilles tendon reflex and plantar flexion reaction time components in man
TL;DR: Results may suggest the differential fatigue of motor units employed in the three motor tasks, MVC, voluntary reaction and achilles tendon reflex, which is postulate a neurally mediated increase in gain of the stretch servomechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Facilitation of late reflexes in humans during the preparatory period of voluntary movement.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Ischemic Nerve Block and Skilled Movement
TL;DR: Accuracy of skilled movement was investigated in a serial positioning task with the index finger reversibly deafferented by an ischemic nerve block and the reflex response to sudden muscle stretch was monitored at systematic intervals following cuff application.
Journal ArticleDOI
Learning effects in human muscular responses to proprioceptive stimuli.
TL;DR: The modification in voluntary muscular responses associated with practice indicate that they may contribute to the composition of the Functional Stretch Reflex, which has previously been considered a high gain supraspinal reflex.
