Abstract

This study aimed to determine the acuity of head and neck position sense in a novel joint position matching paradigm using a head-mounted virtual reality display. The results show that the head-neck position sense acuity of healthy adults is generally within three degrees on matching trials and that acuity increases as the joint angle increases.
