Motor Program Based Theory in Human Movement Jalina Martinez William Kuehl EXS-305 11/28/2021 2 Introduction According to motor program-based theory, the nervous system coordinates movement componen... ts differ depending on the relative significance of movement commands supplied by the central nervous system (CNS). On the other hand, sensation-motor integration refers to the connection between the nerves (sensory system) and the muscles (motor abilities) and to the process of obtaining information through our senses, processing it, and putting it into appropriate organizational structures. Riding a bicycle, walking, surfing, jumping, jogging, and weightlifting are examples of motor abilities that demand voluntary control over movements of joints and body segments to attain a goal. Motor learning and control, or skill acquisition, is the term used by movement scientists to describe the process of acquiring and performing these skills. Human movement is vast, from the most basic reflexive to the most complicated, dexterous voluntary tasks. The control of movement in humans is the subject of this paper. First, the sensory inputs that are most closely linked to movement control are examined, emphasizing somatosensory receptors. The big muscle receptors' response characteristics are investigated in depth. Literature Review According to Morris et al. (1994), the motor program theory provides physical therapists with a theoretical framework for understanding how the brain controls movement. Motor programs are assumed to be analogous to computer programs, which specify the operations of computer hardware. They provide directives for muscles, allowing motions to occur without the need for continual peripheral feedback. A survey of the physical therapy literature revealed that motor program theory had been applied as a theoretical framework for clinical practice in numerous instances. Nonetheless, even though the signif [Show More]
