“…The current method offers a more ecologically valid lower limb proprioception test since it is much closer in context to when falls most often occur: during weight bearing activities like walking and transfers (Talbot et al, 2005). Furthermore, since most lower limb proprioception tests only measure proprioceptive accuracy or bias (Han et al, 2016; Hillier et al, 2015; Horváth et al, 2022), it is unknown how proprioceptive uncertainty may relate to falls, something that can now be empirically assessed using the current method.…”

“…We first considered the measurement of lower limb proprioception in a context that most closely approximates gait. Current methods assessing static lower limb proprioception often do so within a single joint, in a non-weight bearing position, and rely heavily on remembered positions (Han et al, 2016; Hillier et al, 2015; Horváth et al, 2022). While these methods have proven useful for characterizing specific deficits in joint proprioception after orthopedic injury (e.g., Relph et al, 2014), they cannot be readily translated to functional lower extremity movements.…”

Background: Lower limb proprioception is critical for maintaining stability during gait and may impact how individuals modify their movements in response to changes in the environment and body state, a process termed sensorimotor adaptation. However, the connection between lower limb proprioception and sensorimotor adaptation during human gait has not been established. We suspect this gap is due in part to the lack of reliable, efficient methods to assess global lower limb proprioception in an ecologically valid context. New Method: We assessed static lower limb proprioception using an alternative forced choice task, administered twice to determine test-retest reliability. Participants stood on a dual-belt treadmill which passively moved one limb to stimulus locations selected by a Bayesian adaptive algorithm. At the stimulus locations, participants judged relative foot positions and the algorithm estimated the point of subjective equality (PSE) and the uncertainty of lower limb proprioception. Results: Using the Bland-Altman method, combined with Bayesian statistics, we found that both the PSE and uncertainty estimates had good reliability. Comparison with Existing Method(s): Current methods assessing static lower limb proprioception do so within a single joint, in non-weight bearing positions, and rely heavily on memory. One exception assessed static lower limb proprioception in standing but did not measure reliability and contained confounds impacting participants judgments, which we experimentally controlled here. Conclusions: This efficient and reliable method assessing lower limb proprioception will aid future mechanistic understanding of locomotor adaptation and serve as a useful tool for basic and clinical researchers studying balance and falls.

“…Applying the desired game tactic with accurate passes and reaching the highest score with a precise shooting rate is essential during the competition. In addition, pass and shot accuracy errors are common due to the limbs being far from the desired joint angle and poor repositioning (Horváth et al, 2023).…”

This study investigated the effect of joint position sense (JPS) on shooting accuracy in team games. JPS and accuracy tests were performed on 90 participants consisting of amateur and elite-level athletes and sedentaries. Participants were analyzed separately according to their gender and the sports branches they participated in. The elbow joint was analyzed in the chest pass test for basketball, the shoulder joint in the cuff pass test for volleyball, and the hip joint in the in-foot pass test for soccer. Pearson correlation analysis showed no significant relationship between JPS error and accuracy error. The two-way analysis of variance was performed to examine the effect of gender and sports variables on shooting accuracy error and JPS error variables. It was found that the gender variable did not have a significant effect on the shooting accuracy error, while the branch variable had a significant effect on the shooting accuracy error [F(2,84) = 12.82, p = .000, η2 = .234]. The effect of the gender variable on the position error was significant [F(1,84) = .22, p = .641, η2 = .003]. On the other hand, the effect of the branch variable on position error was insignificant. In this study, it was revealed that position error was not related to shooting performance. Shooting accuracy errors showed significant differences according to the branches. Position error showed significant differences according to gender. Accuracy error should be examined in terms of its relationship with other subcomponents of proprioception, such as force and movement speed.

“…To attain precise and accurate muscle movement, proprioception sense, which is vital for individuals, is needed 1 – 3 . Proprioception (conscious) includes kinesthesia, force, and joint position sense 4 – 7 . The sense of force is the ability to accurately perceive the external or internal forces associated with each joint 8 , 9 .…”

The aim of this study was to identify the exact origin of force sense and identify whether it arises centrally or peripherally. The present study was designed to analyze the effects of short-term fatigue on pinch force sense and the duration of these effects. During the fatigue protocol, twenty (10 men and 10 women; Mage = 22.0 years old) young Chinese participants were asked to squeeze maximally until the pinch grip force decreased to 50% of its maximal due to fatigue. Participants were instructed to produce the target force (10% of maximal voluntary isometric contraction) using the same hand before and after fatigue (immediately, 10, 30, 60, 180, 300 s). The results showed significantly higher absolute error immediately after fatigue (1.22 ± 1.06 N) than before fatigue (0.68 ± 0.34 N), and 60 s (0.76 ± 0.69 N), 180 s (0.67 ± 0.42 N), and 300 s (0.75 ± 0.37 N) after fatigue (all P < 0.05) but with no effect on the variable error (P > 0.05). It was also revealed that there was a significant overestimate of the constant error values before (0.32 ± 0.61 N) and immediately after fatigue (0.80 ± 1.38 N, all P < 0.05), while no significant overestimation or underestimation exceeded 300 s after fatigue (P > 0.05). Our study results revealed that short-term fatigue resulted in a significant decrease in force sense accuracy, but it did not affect force sense consistently; however, force sense accuracy recovered to a certain extent within 10 s and 30 s, whereas it recovered fully within 60 s, and force sense directivity improvement exceeded 300 s after fatigue. The present study shows that the sense of tension (peripherally) is also an important factor affecting force sense. Our study supports the view that the periphery is part of the origin of force sense.
