Quantification of Dexterity as the Dynamical Regulation of Instabilities: Comparisons Across Gender, Age, and Disease

Dexterous manipulation depends on using the fingertips to stabilize unstable objects. The Strength–Dexterity paradigm consists of asking subjects to compress a slender and compliant spring prone to buckling. The maximal level of compression [requiring low fingertip forces <300 grams force (gf)] q...
