Comparison of EMG activity of UT and SCM muscle according to neck flexion angle
(Unit: %MVIC)

	NP	NF15°	NF45°	F	p
UT	2.70±1.30	4.72±3.92†	6.22±5.06†‡	13.64	<0.001*
SCM	2.88±1.36	5.30±4.44†	8.47±6.33†‡	9.88	0.001*

Values represent Mean±SD. NP: neutral position, NF15°: neck flexion 15°, NF45°: neck flexion 45°, UT: upper trapezius, SCM: sternocleidomastoid. *p<0.05,

†There is a significant difference compared to NP, ‡There is a significant difference compared to NF15°.
