Abstract

The paper is focused on issues regarding degenerative changes in older industrial population. Proposed research will focus on measurement of dexterity and motor skills, hand strength and range of motions. The paper reviews actual research studies in previously mentioned areas and forms a methodology for new research. The dexterity tests will be performed by Purdue Pegboard Test, Grooved Pegboard Test and Complete Minnesota Dexterity Test. For hand grip the Jamar dynamometer will be used and range of motions will be measured by standard goniometers. The questions about testing positions, number of repetitions, hand dominance, warm-ups and breaks during measurements are discussed and answered. Within this proposed research a mutual relation between dexterity, strength a range of motions will be evaluated. Also actual normative data for European population will available.
