Rehabilitation Practice and Science

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the difference of the distance of two point discrimination between distal and proximal areas in hands and the correlation between the performance of functional discriminative activity and the distance of two point discrimination.The moving and static two point discrimination distances of bilateral hands were measured in thirty normal young college students. Each of them performed the tests of functional discriminative activity by searching red-beans mixed in a container of rice and recognizing the numbers (from zero to nine) engraved on ten rubber stamps. The results revealed that (1) The distance of two …
