Which of the following techniques that researchers use to study the role of proprioception in motor control does not remove proprioceptive feedback but only distorts it?
A) Surgical deafferentation
B) Nerve block
C) Tendon vibration
D) Sensory neuropathy

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Tendon vibration is a technique where the proprioceptive feedback is distorted but not completely removed. This is achieved by using a small vibration device that can stimulate the tendon and alter the feedback from the muscle spindles. Surgical deafferentation and sensory neuropathy are methods that remove proprioceptive feedback completely, while nerve block involves blocking the signals from specific nerves, which can also significantly reduce proprioceptive feedback.
