Introduction:
The aim of this study was to determine the effects of 8 weeks proprioception training without visual input on the proprioception of the knee and ankle and single standing balance time in deaf students. Methods: Twenty male deaf students participated in this study and were randomly assigned into control (n = 10) and experimental (n = 10) groups. Subjects' proprioception was measured using an electrogoniometer. In addition, balance performance was evaluated through single-limb standing performance test under four sensory conditions (condition 1: eyes open on one leg; condition 2: eyes closed on one leg; condition 3: eyes open on foam; condition 4: eyes closed on foam). Results: The findings showed that proprioception training without visual input induced meaningful, significant effects in knee and ankle proprioception (p ≤ 0.001), and single-limb standing time of deaf students at condition 1 (p ≤ 0.03) and 2 (p ≤ 0.001). However, training programs did not have any significant effects on single-limb standing time in conditions 3 (p ≤ 0.41) and 4(p ≤ 0.22). Conclusions: Proprioception training without visual input improves proprioception of ankle, knee and single-limb standing balance time in deaf students. |
