Explain the difference between Central Control/Motor Program Theory and Generalized Motor Program (GMP) Theory.
Explain the difference between Central Control/Motor Program Theory and Generalized Motor Program (GMP) Theory.
Central Control/Motor Program Theory is a memory-based construct that controls coordinated movement, while Generalized Motor Program (GMP) is a memory-based representation of a class of actions with common invariant features.
