A Recruitment Theory of Force-Time Relations in the Production of Brief Force Pulses: The Parallel Force Unit Model.
Ulrich, Rolf; Wing, Alan M.
Psychological Review, v98 n2 p268-94 Apr 1991
The parallel force unit model theory, in which the buildup and decline of force in rapid responses of short duration are assumed to reflect variability in timing of several parallel force units, is presented. Predictions derived from this theory are shown to be in qualitative agreement with empirical findings. (SLD)
