External finger forces in submaximal five-finger static pinch prehension / Robert G. Radwin... [et al.]
Sumario: The objective of this study was to investigate the contribution of individual fingers during submaximal pinch prehension tasks by directly measuring individual finger forces. Small, thin sensors were attached to the distal finger pads for measuring actual finger forces exerted during pinch grip tasks consisting of variying exertion levels, loads and sizes. The operating hypothesis was that individual fingers contribute to the total finger pinch force at the same proportion for increasing exertions levels and pinch spans
