“…This decrease has a physiologic basis in aging and is amplified by disuse and dysfunction. In general, aging adults demonstrate decreases in movement speed (Light, 1990;Mankovsky, Mints, & Lisenyuk, 1982;Poston et al, 2008;Yan et al, 1998), accuracy of movement (Chaput & Proteau, 1996), reaction time (Light, 1990;Sparrow et al, 2006;Yan et al, 1998), strength (Roos et al, 1997;Vandervoort, 2002), hand dexterity (Contreras-Vidal, Teulings, & Stelmach, 1998;Seidler, Alberts, & Stelmach, 2002), and postural control (Jonsson, Henriksson, & Hirschfeld, 2007;Koceja, Allway, & Earles, 1999;Mourey et al, 1998;. En masse, these changes have the potential to contribute to a spiral of disuse and loss of function that often characterizes the process of aging.…”

“…To take into account baseline differences due to increased spatio-temporal movement variability with advancing age Darling et al 1989;Contreras-Vidal et al 1998;, standardized scores were computed from the IDE and RMSE variables. The standardized score (z-score) for an item indicates how far and in what direction that item deviates from its distribution's mean, expressed in units of its distribution's standard deviation.…”

“…The second study (19) examined elderly persons' handwriting by asking participants to perform back and forth strokes in different directions using a digitizing tablet and a specialized pen. Results showed that the movement production of the elderly was impaired in the spatial coordination of finger and wrist movements rather than in acceleration (or force) control.…”
