Between-group Differences in the Patterning of Musculo-skeletal Stress Markers: Avoiding Confounding Factors by Focusing on Qualitative Aspects of Physical Activity
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2013)
This paper presents a method for studying between-group differences in physical activity patterns through the analysis of musculo-skeletal stress markers (MSM). The specific aim was to develop a method that could overcome ...
