The purpose of this study was to measure the functional range of motion of the finger joints
needed to perform activities of daily living. Using the Sollerman hand grip function test, 20 …

Reach-to-grasp actions require coordination of different segments of the upper limbs.
Previous studies have examined the neural substrates of arm transport and hand grip …

The first comparative and systematic climate model study of the sensitivity of the climate
response under Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) conditions to freshwater perturbations at …

We report three experiments designed to investigate changes in tactile sensitivity over the
time-course of goal-directed movements. A dual-task paradigm involving a speeded …

Previous research investigating eye movements when gras** objects with precision grip
has shown that we tend to fixate close to the contact position of the index finger on the …

Many motor learning studies focus on average performance while it is known from everyday
life experience that humans differ in their way of learning new motor tasks. This study …

Vision for action and vision for perception have been suggested to be mediated by
overlap** yet dissociable mechanisms. Recent evidence provided basic psychophysical …

Gras** is a prototype of human motor coordination. Nevertheless, it is not known what
determines the typical movement patterns of gras**. One way to approach this issue is by …

Although variations in the standard prehensile pattern can be found in the literature, these
alternative patterns have never been studied systematically. This was the goal of the current …

The introduction of non-target objects into a workspace leads to temporal and spatial
adjustments of reaching trajectories towards a target. Currently, there are two different …
