【 摘 要 】

Study ObjectivesThe objective of this study was to determine the confidence of expert raters in discriminating phasic and tonic electromyographic (EMG) activity. We undertook this study because we suspected that even expert scorers may disagree on whether a given EMG segment contained phasic activity, tonic activity, or both.
