A set of internal processes associated with practice or experience leading to a relatively permanent gain in performance capability . Relatively permanent gain = learning effect has occurred. No permanent gain = performance effect has occurred. Learning effect is more desirable; performance effect wears off (must be relearned: learning effect is more difficult to attain, performance effect may lead to learning effect. An area of study dealing with the understanding of neural, physical, and behavioral aspects of movement . About structure how the brain and spinal cord work with other structures to produce movement. Many crashes were result of poor button layout. Paul fitts made a more compatible button layout that saved thousands of lives and airplanes: neuroscience, reciprocal innervation, first understood by c. s. Sherrington: suppresses activity of antagonist muscle when agonist is active, allows movements such as walking and reaching to occur. Kaden vanhelden: final common path at spinal cord produces muscle contraction v.
