Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of the patellar movement and the large change of heel pressure distribution during backward leaning posture in perception of the backward standing position.
The patellar movement was examined in 2010 and 2011 among 26 and 9 subjects. The results led us to the following conclusions: the information coming from patellar movement is important for the body position perception during backward leaning position, and a light pressure to patellar upper region enhances the patellar movement perception.The large change of heel pressure distribution was examined in 2012 and 2013 among 9 and 15 subjects. The results suggested that the large change of the heel pressure distribution contributed providing perceptual information for the body position perception during backward leaning position, and an additional pressure to the heel was effective to improve the perception in cases of low perceptibility of backward leaning in standing position.
