Interdigit force coordination in visually guided pinch: studies of dynamic isometric pinch control in adults, typically developing children, and adolescents with Down syndrome.

Coordination of submaximal isometric thumb (F[subscript]t) and index finger (F[subscript]i) forces in adults, children, and adolescents with Down syndrome was examined in a visually guided pinch force task. The digit forces were measured using a pinch apparatus that had two conditions: (1) The pivot...
