Document Summary
How is the cns able to retrieve the motor movement in milliseconds. Motor equivalency (redundancy: flexible motor behavior, cns can choose from too many movements to achieve a movement goal. A stored pattern for movement that applies to a wide range of movement within the same general category. Controls a class of actions rather than specific movements or sequences. Invariant features: unique set of characteristics that defines a gmp, does not vary from one performance of the action to another (ex. relative time, relative force, defined gmp and make it unique. Gmps also address the storage problem and the execution of novel. Schmidt"s schema theory movements: cns can retrieve a generalized motor program (a similar motor program) and modify parameters to meet the specific demands. A rule or set or rules that serves to provide the basis for a decision. An abstract representation of rules governing movement.
