Abstract
Electromyographic results may be influenced by electrical interference or artefacts. This investigation shows that when discrepancies occurred between readings made by different operators they were of low magnitude and rarely reached the level of statistical significance. Assuming that recordings are made under ideal conditions, the data may be accepted as a true and reproducible measure of muscle activity.Keywords
