what is proprioception
Perception of limb movement, body position and spatial orientation arising from stimuli within the body itself
what 2 "senses" are involved in proprioception
Movement sense or kinaesthesis - awareness of joint movement
2. Position sense - awareness of the static position of joints
if e.g. your hand is moving slowly, will this be harder or easier to detect by the body through only movement sense/kinaesthesia proprioception?
The slower the displacement velocity, the harder to detect a change in position if only movement sense available.
proprioception is signalled through joint muscle and tissue, each of which have receptors that transmit signals during movement, what is the peripheral neural input of joints?
in capsule and ligaments
proprioception is signalled through joint muscle and tissue, each of which have receptors that transmit signals during movement, what is the peripheral neural input of muscle?
-Muscle Spindle: primary and secondary endings
-Tendon organ (receptor in muscle)
proprioception is signalled through joint muscle and tissue, each of which have receptors that transmit signals during movement, what is the peripheral neural input of skin?
slow adapting stretch receptors
what proprioception receptors are present in muscles
muscle spindle
Tendon organ
what proprioception receptors are present in joints
Ruffini ending joint
what are the angle of the joint when the limb is kept steady and the rate of change of the angle (angular veolcity) of joint both associated with directly
the output frequency of the joint receptors
is the output frequency of joint receptors is related to the angle of the joint if the limb is kept steady
yes
