  • Human H-reflexes are smaller in difficult beam walking than in normal treadmill walking. (237 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Jaynie F. Yang mainly focuses on Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Electromyography, Treadmill, Physical therapy and Spinal cord injury. His Physical medicine and rehabilitation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Ankle, Rehabilitation and Reflex. His study in Electromyography is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Electrophysiology, Anatomy, Muscle contraction and Central pattern generator.

He has included themes like Gait, Rhythm and Developmental psychology in his Treadmill study. Jaynie F. Yang interconnects Randomized controlled trial and Gait analysis in the investigation of issues within Physical therapy. Jaynie F. Yang combines subjects such as Preferred walking speed and Endurance training with his study of Spinal cord injury.
