Comparable behaviour of ring and little fingers due to an artificial reduction in thumb contribution to hold objects

2020-03-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The human hand plays a crucial role in accomplishing activities of daily living. The contribution of each finger in the human hand is remarkably unique in establishing object stabilization. According to the mechanical advantage hypothesis, the little finger tends to exert a greater normal force than the ring finger during a supination moment production task to stabilize the object. Similarly,...
