Abstract des Autors
The purpose of this study was to determine if 7-year-old boys estimated their shoulder with differently under dynamic and static conditions, if those estimates were different from the measured with of their shoulders, and if the differences between the estimates (if there were any) were related to the amount of body sway associated with the walking pattern. Four measures were obtained for each of the 27 subjects: (a) actual shoulder width, (b) the subject's estimate of shoulder width in a static situation, (c) the subject's estimate of shoulder width in a dynamic situation, and (d) the body sway associated with each subject's walking pattern. Paired measures were compared through the application of t tests. Estimates made in the dynamic situation were not found to be significantly differences were revealed between both static and dynamic estimates and measured shoulder width. Verf.-Referat
