Título The effects of neutral posture deviations on perceived joint discomfort ratings in sitting and standing postures
Información bibliográfica July 1993, Vol.36, No.7, p.785-792. 13 ref.
Resumen Results of this study indicate that: upper extremity postures in which the arms are outstretched in the standing position lead to high levels of perceived shoulder discomfort ratings; supination of the forearm produces most joint stressfulness, followed by pronation and then both elbow flexion and extension; lateral bending of the neck appears to be more stressful than its flexion, extension and rotation; in the standing position, extension of the back should be given the highest ranking for back movements, followed by lateral bending and rotation, then flexion; hip movements are very stressful; ankle flexion is more stressful than ankle extension.
