Edin B, Westling G, Johansson R
J Physiol . 1992 May; 450:547-64. PMID: 1432717
1. Subjects lifted an object with two parallel vertical grip surfaces and a low centre of gravity using the precision grip between the tips of the thumb and index finger....

Gordon A, Forssberg H, Johansson R, Eliasson A, Westling G
Exp Brain Res . 1992 Jan; 90(2):399-403. PMID: 1397154
Recent evidence has shown that visual and haptical size information can be used by adults to estimate the weight of the object, forming the basis of the force programming during...

Forssberg H, Kinoshita H, Eliasson A, Johansson R, Westling G, Gordon A
Exp Brain Res . 1992 Jan; 90(2):393-8. PMID: 1397153
The development of anticipatory control during lifts with the precision grip was examined in 100 children aged 1 to 15 years and in 15 adults. The children were instructed to...

Gordon A, Forssberg H, Johansson R, Westling G
Exp Brain Res . 1991 Jan; 83(3):483-8. PMID: 2026191
Recent evidence for the use of visual cues in the programming of the precision grip has been given by Gordon et al. (1991). Visually invoked size-related information influenced the physical...

Gordon A, Forssberg H, Johansson R, Westling G
Exp Brain Res . 1991 Jan; 83(3):477-82. PMID: 2026190
A size-weight illusion was used to examine the role of visual cues in the programming of manipulative forces during the lifting of test objects utilizing the precision grip. Three different...

Forssberg H, Eliasson A, Kinoshita H, Johansson R, Westling G
Exp Brain Res . 1991 Jan; 85(2):451-7. PMID: 1893993
The coordination of manipulative forces was examined while children and adults repeatedly lifted a small object between the thumb and index finger. Grip force, load force (vertical lifting force), grip...

Gordon A, Forssberg H, Johansson R, Westling G
Exp Brain Res . 1991 Jan; 85(1):226-9. PMID: 1884761
Evidence has recently been given by Gordon et al. (1991a, b) for the use of visually and haptically acquired information in the programming of lifts with the precision grip. The...

Thomas C, Bigland-Ritchie B, Westling G, Johansson R
J Neurophysiol . 1990 Oct; 64(4):1347-51. PMID: 2258752
1. Measurements of twitch contractile properties of human motor units recorded by spike-triggered averaging may be distorted by partial fusion between twitches, because motor units seldom fire at rates below...
19.
Thomas C, Johansson R, Westling G, Bigland-Ritchie B
J Neurophysiol . 1990 Oct; 64(4):1339-46. PMID: 2258751
1. The twitch properties of human thenar motor units were examined in response to intraneural motor-axon stimulation. Force components of thumb abduction and flexion were measured before and after tetanic...

Westling G, Johansson R, Thomas C, Bigland-Ritchie B
J Neurophysiol . 1990 Oct; 64(4):1331-8. PMID: 2258750
1. A method is described for measuring contractile properties of single human motor units. Conventional human microneurographic techniques were adapted to stimulate individual motor axons in the median nerve, with...
