The subjects were one hundred volunteers of Shinsung College (50 males and 50 females), ages from 20 to 27 years(mean age of 22.1 years). This study was carried out from september 7 to setember 10, 1998. The data were analyzed by mean and deviation, unpaired t-test, paired t-test, one way ANOVA and correlation. These results were obtained as follows; 1. Comparison on grip strength by left and right hand, there was a significant difference in standing and sitting position (p<0.05). 2. Comparison on grip strength between male and female, there was a significant difference in standing and sitting position (p<0.05). 3. One-way ANOVA on grip strength according to shoulder joint angle, there was a no significant difference in standing and sitting position (p>0.05). 4. Correlation on grip strength by sitting verus standing, there was a very significantly difference (p<0.01).
