Effects of shoulder stability on endpoint stiffness.

Considers how unconstrained trunk and shoulder movements influence the control of arm mechanics. The goal of this study was to determine how the net mechanical properties of the endpoint of the arm are affected by changes in trunk support. Specifically, the authors examined endpoint stiffness proper...
