Study Notes

Motor Behavior

Defined as the human movement system's response to both internal and external stimuli.
Encompasses all forms of movement and how they are affected by various factors.

Motor Control

Ability to initiate and adjust purposeful movements.
Relies on the central nervous system's capability to assimilate and integrate sensory information.
Uses past experiences to refine movement patterns and improve coordination.

Motor Learning

Involves processes that enhance skill performance through practice and experience.
Results in relatively permanent changes in one's ability to execute skilled movements.
Key for developing expertise in various activities and sports.

Motor Development

Represents changes in motor behavior over a person's lifetime.
Encompasses physical, cognitive, and social factors influencing movement capability and coordination.
Includes the progression from basic movements in infancy to complex actions in adulthood.
