31	The role of central and peripheral mechanisms in isometric force perception in humans / Jones, Lynette Anne. January 1983 (has links) The perception of isometric forces was examined under normal conditions, during sustained constant force contractions, and during vibration of the muscle tendon. In these experiments a contralateral limb matching procedure was employed, and force and the brachial biceps and triceps electromyogram (EMG) were recorded from each arm. Under normal conditions it was found that smaller forces were consistently overestimated in magnitude. During sustained constant force contractions the matching forces exerted by the unfatigued arm increased linearly as did the EMG of the fatiguing muscle. These results are consistent with force judgements being made with respect to the excitatory input to the reference muscle. It was further determined that during fatigue subjects were unable to dissociate the force of exertion from the motor command generating the contraction. Muscle tendon vibration increased the variability of force judgements and resulted in the overestimation of forces. This appeared to be due to co-contraction of the antagonist triceps muscle during vibration of the contracting biceps. The increase in the perceived magnitude of force during vibration is again consistent with the centrally-mediated theory of force perception. Arm -- Muscles. Psychophysics. Perception.
