While a large number of studies have been carried out on standing balance and walking, little is known about sitting balance. The purpose of this study was to clarify the motor performance of sitting balance during lateral shifting in the elderly. The subjects ( 17 elderly and 13 young persons) were asked to sit on a gravicorder without touching the floor and to shift to the right side and then to the left side as far as possible. We analyzed the deviation of the center of gravity, the tilting angle and the rotation angle of the head, shoulder girdle and pelvis at the final position. In the elderly, the deviation of the center of gravity at each side, the tilting angle of the pelvis and the rotational angle were smaller than in the subjects of the young group, while the head angle was larger. The direction of the head rotation was different between the elderly subjects and the younger subjects. These data suggest that both the head and the shoulder girdle movement are characteristic in the elderly., 大阪府立看護大学医療技術短期大学部紀要. 2000, 5, p.31-38}, pages = {31--38}, title = {高齢者における坐位動作の運動解析(自然科学系)}, volume = {5}, year = {2000} }
