The relative effectiveness of three forms of visual knowledge of results on maximal strength output in an isokinetic extension/flexion of the knee

Creator:: Hobbel, Susan Laurie
Abstract:: This experiment was conducted to study the effects of three different forms of visual knowledge of results (KR) on maximal strength output in isokinetic exercise. The task used was an isokinetic extension of the knee, followed by a corresponding flexion. Four, six-subject experimental groups completed four testing sessions conducted over...
