The purpose of this study was to establish normative data for 6- to 19-year-olds on four tests of hand strength. The Jamar dynamometer was used to measure grip strength and a pinch gauge was used to measure tip, key, and palmar pinch. A sample of 231 males and 240 females from the seven-county Milwaukee area was tested, using standardized positioning and instructions. Results of this study indicate that increases in grip and pinch strength coincide with increases in chronological age, that males are stronger than females in all age groups, and that hand dominance does not significantly affect hand strength scores. Normative data collected in this study were slightly higher than norms from previous American and Australian studies.
本研究的目的是建立6至19岁儿童四项手部力量测试的标准数据。使用贾马尔握力计测量握力,并用捏力计测量指尖捏力、钥匙捏力和掌部捏力。对来自密尔沃基地区七个县的231名男性和240名女性样本进行了测试,采用标准化的姿势和指导语。本研究结果表明,握力和捏力的增加与实际年龄的增长相一致,所有年龄组中男性比女性更强壮,并且手的优势对手部力量得分没有显著影响。本研究收集的标准数据略高于之前美国和澳大利亚研究的标准。
