Proprioceptive Accuracy Data from Sedentary vs. Non-Sedentary Occupational Groups

A study by Marie Kucerova investigated the association between occupational sedentary behavior and proprioceptive accuracy in healthy adults. Fifty participants were divided into sedentary and non-sedentary groups based on occupational sitting time. Proprioception of the upper and lower extremities was assessed under seated, standing, and supine conditions, together with body dimension estimation tasks.

Use Cases

• Compare proprioceptive accuracy between sedentary and non-sedentary occupational groups based on the participant grouping described.
• Analyze the effect of posture (seated, standing, supine) on joint position sense based on the assessment conditions mentioned.
• Investigate potential sensorimotor consequences of reduced movement variability in occupational settings based on the study's conclusions.

Strengths

• Dataset includes results from 50 participants.
• Proprioception was assessed under three distinct postural conditions (seated, standing, supine).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is very small (26.9 KB), indicating limited scope.
