motor control Flashcards
what does motor behavior include
motor control
motor learning
motor development
what is motor control
a process of grading initiating and directing purposefully voluntary movement
what is the field of motor control directed at
nature of the environment
how movement is controlled
why studying motor control
improve mvmnt capabilities
improve motor performance
generating and building theory
how does motor control works
it identifies the task
plan according to CNS
sensory feedback is supplied
how movements emerge
it emerges from combination of TIE
Task
Individual
Environment
what does task include
it includes
stability
mobility
manipulation
what does individual include
action
perception
cognition
what does environment include
regulatory and non-regulatory
what are the theories of motor control
reflex theory
hierarchical theory
motor programing theory
dynamic systems theory
ecological theory
what does reflex theory says
complex behavior is controlled by series of chained reflexes
reflexes are combined into action that makes behavior
by Charles Sherrington
what is basic structure of reflex called
reflex arc
the reflex system includes
stimulus
receptors
sensory neurons
interneuron
motor neuron
effector
response
what is important in initiating movement
sensory input
uses sensory input to control motor output
stimulate good reflexes
inhibit undesirable reflexes
relay heavily on feedback
reflex theory
