  • Title: Treatment of handwriting problems utilizing EMG biofeedback training.
    Author: Hughes H, Jackson K, Du Bois KE, Erwin R.
    Journal: Percept Mot Skills; 1979 Apr; 48(2):603-6. PubMed ID: 454524.
    Abstract:
    The effects of EMG biofeedback training on cursive handwriting were investigated for 4 girls and 5 boys in Grade 4. A significant reduction in EMG between the first baseline session and the last training session was obtained. Four of 5 characteristics of handwriting improved significantly. The need for carefully designed research comparing EMG biofeedback training and relaxation training was indicated. A self-control factor in handwriting was hypothesized.
