|a The purpose of this study was to determine if the closed basket weave ankle taping affected the kinematics and kinetics of the lower extremity in college athletes. This study also examined the different effects that the taping application had between men and women. 20 athletes participated in this study, and 19 had usable data for analyzing. Each participant who took part in the study performed a specified jumping maneuver while taped as well as un taped. The jumping maneuver was performed in a biomechanics laboratory that was equipped with forces plates and a Vicon motion analysis system. A repeated measures MANOVA was performed to determine statistical significance for both conditions. Results indicate that the application of ankle tape significantly decreased plantar flexion and dorsiflexion (p<0.001). Results also show that the application of tape significantly decreased the time to peak vertical ground reaction force (/;<().05). Lastly, results showed that due to the application of tape, men had to significantly increase the amount of knee range of motion during landing (jx0.05). Using the information provided by the results and linking it with previous research and muscle length-power relationship theories can be formed which explain the changes that took place due to the taping application. Primarily, the idea that when range of motion is restricted the muscle involved with force absorption cannot work as designed, thus forces are transferred to other structures of the lower extremity. Though this theory seems most sound the results from the study do not support this claim leading to other means of explanation. Further examination of the data collected from each participant showed vast differences with the affects the application of ankle tape had on the many kinetic and kinematic variables of the lower extremity. This fact ultimately shows that each participant is different and their accommodations to the taping application are specific to them and each of there individual needs, therefore no generalized statements can be formed from the data provided which explains for the lack of uniform change.
