Journal Article
Chadwell, A., Kenney, L., Granat, M., Thies, S., Galpin, A., & Head, J. (2019). Upper limb activity of twenty myoelectric prosthesis users and twenty healthy anatomically intact adults. Scientific Data, 6(1), 199. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41597-019-0211-6

The upper limb activity of twenty unilateral upper limb myoelectric prosthesis users and twenty anatomically intact adults were recorded over a 7-day period using two wrist worn accelerometers (Actigraph, LLC). This dataset reflects the real-world ac... Read More about Upper limb activity of twenty myoelectric prosthesis users and twenty healthy anatomically intact adults.

Journal Article
Ebrahim Mousavi, M., Ahmadi Bani, M., Aboutorabi, A., Zare, H., Head, J., Movahedi Yeghaneh, M., & Ahmadi, E. (2020). The effect of a semi-rigid thoracolumbosacral orthosis (TLSO) on foot pressure in elderly subjects presenting with spinal hyperkyphosis. Disability and Rehabilitation: Assistive Technology, 15(2), 205-210. https://doi.org/10.1080/17483107.2018.1555289

Purpose: The ageing process can be accompanied by a degeneration of the spine and increase the risk of thoracic hyperkyphosis (excessive spinal forward curvature) amongst elderly people. This condition can in turn impair mobility, reduce balance, and...

Upper- and lower-limb amputees show reduced levels of eeriness for images of prosthetic hands (2019)
Journal Article
Buckingham, G., Parr, J., Wood, G., Day, S., Kenney, L., Galpin, A., …Poliakoff, E. (2019). Upper- and lower-limb amputees show reduced levels of eeriness for images of prosthetic hands. Psychonomic Bulletin and Review, 26, 1295-1302. https://doi.org/10.3758/s13423-019-01612-x

The uncanny phenomenon describes the feeling of unease associated with seeing an image which is close to appearing human. Prosthetic hands in particular are well-known to induce this effect. Little is known, however, about this phenomenon from the vi... Read More about Upper- and lower-limb amputees show reduced levels of eeriness for images of prosthetic hands.
