Document Summary
Performance assessment: introduction, outcome measures, and process measures. A measure that indicates the outcome or result of performing a motor skill. A measure that indicates the performance of a specific aspect of the motor control system during the performance of a motor skill. A measure that describes a motion without regard to force or mass: acceleration . A measure used to study the role of force as a cause of motion. Brain controls the movement of body, so we need to understand how: to help rehab, to assess efficiency. Cerebellum controls balance, movement, and decision making: helps provide smooth, coordinated body movement, lower back brain. Resting tremor- before and after the movement, someone"s. Part of his cerebellum is missing hand is moving/shaking. Cerebellar patients: impairments of the cb (unilateral and bilateral lesions): there is extra movement, not smooth, the return is the hardest.
