Sensory receptors that respond to mechanical pressure or deformation, detect the degree (amplitude) and speed of their displacement over time (frequency rate) and inform the calculation of the force of changes in our position, or movement. Mechanoreceptors in skin, joints, muscles, and tendons are among those most often categorized as proprioceptors, or self (proprio) sensors, whose cortical projections may be interpreted as the immediate position of any or all of our body parts. (See proprioception.)[1]
