“…Finally, the focus of the present study is on sizes; however, the literature recommends considering the shapes of the subjects (Branton, 1984;Nijholt et al, 2016;Wang et al, 2018), their seating posture (lordosis and kyphosis lumbar seated position) (Pynt et al, 2001), the type of chair (dynamic and static chairs) (van Dieën et al, 2001), and the proportions of the chair (Kelly, 2005) to accommodate a maximum number of users. In addition to the anthropometry of the user, these design considerations affect the percentage of accommodation level.…”
