01:377:310 Lecture Notes - Lecture 8: Peripheral Neuropathy, Peripheral Vision, Proprioception
Document Summary
Research using deafferentation and tendon vibration techniques has shown that proprioception influences: Spatial and temporal accuracy for movement in progress. Spatial temporal coupling between limbs and limb segments. Proprioceptors and vision conflict when walls are moving and floor isn"t. Vision is our preferred source of sensory infor. Participants stood in a room in which the walls moved toward or awar from them but floor stayed. When the walls moved the people adjusted their posture to not fall even though they were not moving. Techniques for investigating the role of vision in motor control. Mask view on video or film of specific events or characteristics. Evidence comes from research investigating specific issues and vision characteristics: monocular vs binocular vision. Binocular vision import !!!!: central and peripheral vision. Provides specific info to allow s to achieve action goals. Detects info beyond the central vision limits. Provides info about the environmental context and the moving limbs.
