Exam 3 Flashcards
The ability to perform reasoning and abstract though
Fluid intelligence
A process where quality of evidence relative to the risk of benefits of treatment is determined
Evidence based medicine
Forces that act upon a body or object, including those from gravity, the muscles, and external to the body
Mechanical Loads
Skinfold Assessments
Measurement of thickness of skin at various sites of the body
Motor Control
The study of understanding of mechanisms by which the nervous and muscular systems coordinate body movements
Qualitative Analysis
Requires the progressive identification of the aspects critical to the movement through a systematic process that often requires the analyst to view multiple trials from different viewpoints
Densitometry
Determines density of body mass by/ scale or air displacement
The ability to store information in the brain
Chrystal Intelligence
Scans the body to make an x ray
Dual Energy X ray Absorptiometry
The study of motor performance throughout the life span from birth through old age
Motor Development
Improving sport and performance bye athletes through the improvement in movement techniques or the development of equipment
Sport biomechanics
When all points of the body are moving in the same direction at the same speed and are traveling the same distance
Linear Motion
an instrument for the precise measurement of angles, especially one used to measure the angles between the faces of crystals
Goniometer
Dual Energy X ray Absorptiometry
Scans the body to make an x ray
Stimulus recognition - collection information from environment Response selection - deciding what response to make with the info Response programming - Organizing and initiating an action after a stimulus has been identified
