Evaluation of Physical and Motor Function in an Aging Female Population - Preliminary Results
Original language description
The paper is focused on age related changes regarding motor abilities and forces. The paper briefly reviews proposed methodology and measuring procedures. The fine fingers dexterity was measured by Purdue Pegboard Test and Grooved Pegboard Test. For hand dexterity the Complete Minnesota Dexterity Test was used. Hand grip strength was evaluated by Jamar dynamometer and range of motions were measured by classic goniometers. Furthermore the paper presents preliminary results of two female age groups (25-29 and 60-73) and their comparison. As expected younger group of female performed better in dexterity testing, hand grips and some range of motions. However some ranges of motions were better in older female group probably due to exercise. Some inaccuracy also might occur during measurement which will be eliminated in the future. These are just preliminary results which served for evaluation of proposed methodology. The research will carry on and will be extended in the future to other age groups and also to male population.
