Background: Producing the target force of a muscle group by using visual feedback and reproducing the same force fully blind are regarded as a common approach for quantifying the sense of force. Force sense error is considered to be the difference between the produced target force and reproduced force. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of tactile sensory feedback in the lower leg on the perceived magnitude of force sense.
Methods and materials: In this cross-sectional study, 18 healthy men (mean age 24.31 ± 3.94 years) were selected based on a simple randomized method. First, the quantity of force sense error of the knee extensor muscle group was measured before and after manipulating the tactile inputs of the leg. Then, methods A, B, and C were applied to measure force sense errors. In addition, the tactile impulses were manipulated in methods B and C by placing a piece of thick foam between the distal portion of lower leg among the subjects and the dynamometer. The tactile inputs remained intact during method A. |
