Estimation of hand force in ergonomic job evaluations / Stephen Bao and Barbara Silverstein

The aims of the present study were: (1)to collect normative data of pinch and power grip strenght with a newer digital dynamometer; (2) to study the ability of hand grip force maching using a hand dynamometer where the validity and reliability issues were studied; and (3) to study the relationship between hand grip force matching and muscle activities of three forearm and hand muscles
