Ability & Skill

Ability describes the role of the nervous system in physical performance, where each action is done with varying degrees of skill.

Physical Performance

The execution of actions, characterized by the degree of skill applied.

Nervous System's Role

The nervous system influences the skill level of physical performance.

Study Notes

Neurological Basis of Ability

  • Ability implies the nervous system's role in physical performance.
  • Skill level is a factor in expressing each type of physical performance.
  • The nervous system's function is central to the execution of all physical actions.
  • The proficiency or expertise in a task is a determining factor for a certain type of physical performance.
  • Different levels of skills impact the execution of a particular physical activity.
  • A complex interplay between neural pathways and practiced movements determines proficiency.
  • The expression of ability depends on the degree of developed proficiency (skill).
  • Neural efficiency and optimization are paramount for achieving superior physical performance.
  • The more refined the skill, the more effectively the nervous system can control movements.
  • Factors that contribute to the neural efficiency behind abilities include precise motor control mechanisms, coordination, learning, and practice.

Skill and Performance

  • Skill is a crucial component in the expression of ability.
  • Skill development depends on practice and learning.
  • The degree of skill influences the quality of performance.
  • Refined skills enhance the capacity for precise movements.
  • Better motor control is a consequence of refined motor skills.
  • Expertise in an activity involves an intricately developed, well-practiced system of neural pathways.
  • Consistency in performance, accuracy, and efficiency are hallmarks of advanced skill development.
  • Skill proficiency is a measurable aspect of ability.
  • High levels of skill facilitate more precise and efficient physical performances.
  • Improved ability is a product of higher levels of skill and practiced expertise.
