Title: | The measurement of proprioceptive accuracy. A systematic literature review | Authors: | Horváth, Áron Ferentzi, Eszter Schwartz, Kristóf JACOBS, Nina MEYNS, Pieter Köteles, Ferenc |
Issue Date: | 2023 | Publisher: | SHANGHAI UNIV SPORT | Source: | Journal of Sport and Health Science, | Abstract: | Proprioceptive accuracy refers to the individual’s ability to perceive proprioceptive information, i.e., the information referring to the actual state of the locomotor system, that originates from mechanoreceptors located in various parts of the locomotor system and from tactile receptors of the skin. Proprioceptive accuracy appears to be an important aspect in the evaluation of sensorimotor functioning; however, no widely accepted standard assessment exists. In this systematic review, our goal was to identify and categorize different methods that are used to assess different aspects of proprioceptive accuracy. A literature search was conducted in five different databases (PubMed, SPORTDiscus, PsycINFO, ScienceDirect and SpringerLink). Overall, 1139 scientific papers reporting 1346 methods were included in this review. The methods assess eight different aspects of proprioception, i.e., (1) the perception of joint position, (2) movement and movement extent, (3) trajectory, (4) velocity, and the sense of (5) force, (6) muscle tension, (7) weight and (8) size. They apply various paradigms of psychophysics (i.e. the method of adjustment, constant stimuli and limits). As the outcomes of different tasks with respect to various body parts show no associations (i.e. proprioceptive accuracy is characterized by site-specificity and method-specificity), the appropriate measurement method for the task needs to be chosen based on theoretical considerations and/or ecological validity. | Other: | accepted | Keywords: | Assessment;Kinesthesia;Motor control;Proprioception;Proprioceptive accuracy | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/36958 | ISSN: | 2095-2546 | e-ISSN: | 2213-2961 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.jshs.2022.04.001 | ISI #: | 000972388300001 | Rights: | This is an open access article under the CC BY-NC-ND license. | Category: | A1 | Type: | Journal Contribution |
