Kinesthetics

(1) a study of posture in relation to vibration of the Achilles tendon conducted by Talis and Solopova (2000) at Russia's Institute for Information on Transmission Problems;

(2) a study by Mills and Griffin (2000) of motion sickness and factors that affect it; and

(3) an examination conducted by Lydic and Steele (1979) of the wide-based gait and hip mobility in sitting that is characteristic of children with Down's syndrome.

Posture and Achilles Tendon Vibration Experiment

In this study conducted in Russia, Talis and Solopova (2000) examined vibration inducted body movement in order to determine whether postural response was limited to a specific joint or was, instead, a complex reaction of processes involving many body structures. Specifically, the study examined postural responses following vibration of subjects' Achilles tendon.

Methods used in the study involved the analysis of vibratory reactions observed under three different conditions: normal standing, standing with a support and standing when the support was protracted forward to change the initial posture. For each subject, additional support was provided for the back at the sacral or shoulder level
