Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of age and gender on full Range of Motion (ROM) of the whole body. Background: Age and gender was known important factors affecting ROM. Previous studies mainly focused on evaluating ROM for Western subjects using a one-dimensional measuring technique. Thus, it would be interesting to study the age and gender effect on ROM for Asian population using a three-dimensional measuring technique. Method: Twenty male and 20 female aged 20 to 63 participated in this study. Subjects performed a total of 8 voluntary motions in sagittal plane for 8 segments and it was measured by three-dimensional motion capture system (VICON, UK) with 9 cameras. Results: The result showed that age was significant for 5 motions whereas gender was significant for 2 motions. Young and female group generally displayed larger ROM than old and male groups. The age effect on ROM was high in flexion/extension of the hand, trunk, and head while the gender effect on ROM was high in flexion of lower arm and flexion/extension of upper leg. Conclusion: The age effect on ROM was higher than the gender effect on ROM and the magnitude of ROM difference was depending upon segments and motions. Application: The result of this study would beuseful information for designing workplace for Asian worker population that is associated with age and gender.
