Abstract

Evaluations of human motricity (identification of motor dysfunctions and evaluation of therapy) are not commonly used in assessing work requirements. The movement and electrical activity of muscles were measured in the laboratory during the performance of specific tasks. A new device - the Kin-Com dynamometer - was particularly useful for these measurements. A number of motricity standards were established. The principal result of this research was the validation of a measurement and analytical system based on the Kin-Com dynamometer.
