Fundamental Concepts

Front 1

motor development characteristics (3)

Back 1

age related, continuous, sequential;involves changes in movement behaviour;depends on underlying processes

Front 2

Motor learning and give example

Back 2

stored in long-term memory,
associated with exercise or repetition of motor skills
Correcting a grips on a racket or hockey stick

Front 3

Motor Control

Back 3

the neural, physical, and behavioral aspects of movement

Front 4

physical growth what is it and is it quantitative or qualitative

Back 4

increase in size and body mass
is quantitative

Front 5

is increase in muscle mass physical growth

Back 5

no its training

Front 6

physical maturation what is it and is it quantitative or qualitative

Back 6

changes in biology
qualitative

Front 7

contraint

Back 7

permits some movements while discouraging other movements
shape movements

Front 8

newells model of constraints

Back 8

dynamic, involves individual, environmental and task constraints

Front 9

whats individual constraint and what are the two categories

Back 9

internal within and having to do with the body
structural:physical structure like mass, height
functional:more behavioural like attention

Front 10

environmental constraints and what are different types

Back 10

outside global not task specific;sociocultural,physical

Front 11

task constraints

Back 11

related to the what task is asking ex)rules of game,equipment

Front 12

longitudinal study

Back 12

An individual or group is observed over time.
Study can require lengthy observation

Front 13

cross sectional study

Back 13

Individuals or groups of different ages are observed.
Change is inferred, not actually observed
Pros:fast
Cons:problem of cohorts, differences of environment between age groups ie technology

Front 14

Sequential or mixed longitudinal:

Back 14

mini longitudinal studies with overlapping ages (cross sect)
Follows cohorts overtime
Changes can be observed

Front 15

paradox in development

Back 15

universality and variability
