Synopsis
Explore how the knee jerk reveals the balance between muscle action and reflexes, backed by careful experiments.
This nonfiction work presents experimental observations of reflexes, measurements, and how mental activity can influence a single movement. It discusses how the kick following a tendon strike compares with the response to a bell, and how both mechanical stimulation and neural reflexes contribute to the overall motion. The book also examines data from multiple subjects and conditions, including scenarios with added or augmented stimuli.
- Learn how mechanical stimulation and reflex influence shape the knee-jerk response
- See how data from different groups and trials are interpreted to separate initial kicks from subsequent swings
- Understand how researchers relate findings to theories about nervous system control and brain involvement
- Discover how early work connects to broader ideas in physiology and psychophysiology

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents an in-depth analysis of variations in the knee jerk reflex, a subject of extensive experimentation throughout the late 19th century. The author explores both normal and augmented reactions, and discusses the variation and significance of these reflexive kicks. One particularly interesting element of the book is the exploration of reflexive and voluntary action. The author sought to determine whether purely external stimuli could elicit the knee jerk response without any voluntary or conscious effort, through a series of experiments where participants were instructed to focus on other stimuli (such as a bell, or a mild electric shock). In doing so, the author uncovers new insights into the connection between external stimuli and motor responses. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332000661_0
