The purpose of the current investigation was to determine the effects of frontal EMG biofeedback and progressive relaxation training on manual motor functioning in Parkinsonians. Twenty patients were matched and randomly assigned to two groups. All subjects were administered a brief manual motor assessment. The experimental group then underwent weekly sessions of frontal EMG and relaxation training for a period of 15 weeks. At the conclusion of the training period, both experimental and control groups were again administered the manual motor tasks. The results indicated that Parkinsonian patients are capable of significantly lowering frontal EMG activity levels. The motor task results, however, yielded no statistically significant differences between the two groups as a result of the biofeedback training.
当前这项研究的目的是确定额叶肌电图生物反馈和渐进性放松训练对帕金森病患者手部运动功能的影响。20名患者被匹配并随机分为两组。所有受试者都接受了一次简短的手部运动评估。然后，实验组每周进行一次额叶肌电图和放松训练，为期15周。在训练期结束时，实验组和对照组再次接受手部运动任务测试。结果表明，帕金森病患者能够显著降低额叶肌电图活动水平。然而，运动任务测试结果显示，生物反馈训练后两组之间没有统计学上的显著差异。
