Does knee joint proprioception differ according to age and gender in healthy adults?

KJPS assessment revealed significant differences in absolute errors by age and gender. Males demonstrated lower errors, while participants aged ≥ 45 years exhibited greater deviations than younger groups. No gender differences were identified in KJMS. Overall, proprioception declined significantly in the 45+ age group.

Abstract

KJPS assessment revealed significant differences in absolute errors by age and gender. Males demonstrated lower errors, while participants aged ≥ 45 years exhibited greater deviations than younger groups. No gender differences were identified in KJMS. Overall, proprioception declined significantly in the 45+ age group.
