Abstract
Kinematic and kinetic calculations are known to differ significantly based on the methods used to determine their joint centers in the lower limb [1, 2]. In the upper limb many different methods are commonly used to determine the glenohumeral joint center and to the author’s knowledge an investigation into their effects on kinematic and kinetic calculations has not been performed. In this study an investigation into the effects of utilising different methods to estimate the glenohumeral center on kinematic and kinetic calculations was conducted. Two male and one female participants were recruited for analysis. Differences in kinematic calculations were observed between all five methods as well as significant differences between the kinetic calculations from one method and the other four collective methods, confirming that both kinematic and kinetic calculations are affected by the method of joint center estimation used during analysis.
