Diagnosis and treatment of joint hyper-resistance is challenging due to a mix of tonic and phasic contributions. The parallel-cascade (PC) system identification technique offers a potential solution to disentangle the intrinsic (tonic) and reflexive (phasic) contributions to joint impedance, i.e. resistance. However, a simultaneous neurophysiological validation of both intrinsic and reflexive joint impedances is lacking. This simultaneous validation is important given the mix of tonic and phasic contributions to joint hyper-resistance. Therefore, the main goal of this paper is to perform a group-level neurophysiological validation of the PC system identification technique using electromyography (EMG) measurements.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Ten healthy people participated in the study. Perturbations were applied to the ankle joint to elicit reflexes and allow for system identification. Participants completed 20 hold periods of 60 seconds, assumed to have constant joint impedance, with varying magnitudes of intrinsic and reflexive joint impedances across periods. Each hold period provided a paired data point between the PC-based estimates and neurophysiological measures, i.e. between intrinsic stiffness and background EMG, and between reflexive gain and reflex EMG.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The intrinsic paired data points, with all subjects combined, were strongly correlated, with a range of <jats:inline-formula><jats:alternatives><jats:tex-math>$$r = [0.87\\ 0.91]$$<\/jats:tex-math><mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\">\n                    <mml:mrow>\n                      <mml:mi>r<\/mml:mi>\n                      <mml:mo>=<\/mml:mo>\n                      <mml:mo>[<\/mml:mo>\n                      <mml:mn>0.87<\/mml:mn>\n                      <mml:mspace\/>\n                      <mml:mn>0.91<\/mml:mn>\n                      <mml:mo>]<\/mml:mo>\n                    <\/mml:mrow>\n                  <\/mml:math><\/jats:alternatives><\/jats:inline-formula> in both ankle plantarflexors and dorsiflexors.
