Book excerpt: Este libro lleva por título los términos "Control y Aprendizaje Motor", entendiendo el control motor como el conjunto de procesos relacionados con la elaboración, dominio y gobierno del movimiento ya adquirido, mientras que el aprendizaje motor está constituido por un conjunto de conceptos abstractos sobre cómo es adquirido y/o modificado. La obra está dividida en cinco bloques temáticos: - Bloque I: aborda los conceptos generales y básicos relacionados con el control y aprendizaje motor. - Bloque II: se centra en el estudio de las deficiencias en el control motor en cualquiera de sus expresiones. - Bloque III: versa sobre el control postural y de la marcha. - Bloque IV: se centra en temas relacionados con al alcance, prensión y manipulación del miembro superior. - Bloque V: expone una perspectiva práctica de aquellos abordajes terapéuticos y aplicaciones basados en el control y aprendizaje motor. La obra se cierra con un glosario que, sin duda, será de ayuda para cualquier lector que quiera profundizar en esta apasionante área de estudio.
Download or read book Teor as del control y aprendizaje motor written by Noel Fernando Mejía Mejía and published by Wanceulen S.L.. This book was released on with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sin lugar a duda, el movimiento es uno de los factores que definen y determinan la evolución de la condición humana. Tal cualidad no solo permite cubrir las necesidades básicas para la supervivencia (alimentación, refugio, reproducción, ocio, defensa), sino que potencia el desarrollo de las capacidades intelectuales y emocionales de la especie humana. Estos dos aspectos (intelecto y emoción), hacen más que justificable el estudio del movimiento humano. En ese sentido, la aplicación potencial, como lo explican Schmidt y Lee (1999), de dicho estudio se extiende a áreas como el deporte, la terapia física, la industria, el arte y aun el mismo lenguaje. El hecho de desempeñar distintas tareas en las mencionadas áreas, implica un reto complejo para el cuerpo humano. Sin embargo, el ser humano es capaz de controlar y aprender una amplia gama, en volumen y complejidad, de movimientos. Todo ello a pesar de las características particulares del sistema neuromuscular, como son: la redundancia de las activaciones musculares, la no linealidad de la generación de fuerzas, y la muy escasa reproductibilidad de las acciones. Estas características, en principio limitantes, son en realidad salidas ingeniosas del sistema neuromuscular para la solución de situaciones complejas. Desde inicios del siglo XIX, el estudio de la conducta motriz ha sido objeto del campo de lo que hoy se conoce como control motor; que básicamente, pondera dos objetivos: 1. Control motor: busca comprender los procesos fisiológicos que desencadenan las distintas interacciones entre los tres niveles (médula espinal, tronco encefálico, corteza) del Sistema Nervioso Central (SNC), responsables de la conducta motriz, y su conexión con las características mecánicas del aparato osteomuscular. 2. Aprendizaje motor: persigue la comprensión respecto a la adquisición de los movimientos a través de la práctica; y cómo los elementos genéticos, ambientales y psicológicos condicionan el aprendizaje de las habilidades requeridas en el óptimo desempeño de las diversas actividades del ser humano.

Download or read book Choice Theory A Very Short Introduction written by Michael Allingham and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2002-08-22 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We make choices all the time - about trivial matters, about how to spend our money, about how to spend our time, about what to do with our lives. And we are also constantly judging the decisions other people make as rational or irrational. But what kind of criteria are we applying when we say that a choice is rational? What guides our own choices, especially in cases where we don't have complete information about the outcomes? What strategies should be applied in making decisions which affect a lot of people, as in the case of government policy? This book explores what it means to be rational in all these contexts. It introduces ideas from economics, philosophy, and other areas, showing how the theory applies to decisions in everyday life, and to particular situations such as gambling and the allocation of resources. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
Download or read book Nutrition and Aging written by Irwin H. Rosenberg and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2002 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humanity is aging. In the last century, life expectancy has increased by as much as 25 years, the greatest increase in 5'000 years of history. As a consequence the elderly constitute today the fastest growing segment of the world's population. This new situation creates many social problems and challenges to health care which both the developed as well as the developing countries will have to cope with. The present publication shows that scientific progress has reached a level where nutritional interventions may play a decisive part in the prevention of degenerative conditions of age, improvement of quality of life and impact on health care burden and resources. Topics deal with such different aspects as the influence of prenatal and early infant nutrition on the future aged individual and effects of energetic restriction on longevity. Further contributions include studies on mitochondrial alterations, digestive problems, specific metabolic deviations mediated by insulin, bone degradation, structural changes, neuromuscular dysfunctions, mental state of the elderly as well as the response of the immune system to nutrient intake. Finally the book offers a review of requirements appropriate to meet the age-related public health challenges of the 21st century.

Download or read book Emotions and Human Mobility written by Maruška Svašek and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides insights into the emotional dimensions of human mobility. Drawing on findings and theoretical discussions in anthropology, sociology, cultural studies, philosophy, linguistics, migration studies, human geography and political science, the authors offer interdisciplinary perspectives on a highly topical debate, asking how 'emotions' can be conceptualised as a tool to explore human mobility. Emotions and Human Mobility investigates how emotional processes are shaped by migration, and vice versa. To what extent are people’s feelings about migration influenced by structural possibilities and constraints such as immigration policies or economic inequality? How do migrants interact emotionally with the people they meet in the receiving countries, and how do they attach to new surroundings? How do they interact with 'the locals', with migrants from other countries, and with migrants from their own homeland? How do they stay in touch with absent kin? The volume focuses on specific cases of migration within Europe, intercontinental mobility, and diasporic dynamics. Critically engaging with the affective turn in the study of migration, Emotions and Human Mobility will be highly relevant to scholars involved in current theoretical debates on human mobility. Providing grounded ethnographic case studies that show how theory arises from concrete historical cases, the book is also highly accessible to students of courses on globalisation, migration, transnationalism and emotion. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies.

Download or read book Biophysical Foundations of Human Movement written by Bruce Abernethy and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biophysical Foundations of Human Movement, Third Edition, introduces readers to key concepts concerning the anatomical, mechanical, physiological, neural, and psychological bases of human movement. The text provides undergraduate students with a broad foundation for more detailed study of the subdisciplines of human movement and for cross-disciplinary studies. Readers will learn the multi-dimensional changes in movement and movement potential that occur throughout the life span as well as those changes that occur as adaptations to training, practice, and other lifestyle factors. This third edition includes the latest research and improved presentation to address areas of growth and change in the fields of human movement. The following are important updates to this edition: • A new chapter on historical origins of human movement science provides students with an appreciation of the development of the field as well as its future directions. • Content regarding exercise physiology has been reorganized to provide more discrete coverage of key concepts in nutrition. • A new concluding section focuses on applications in the areas of prevention and management of chronic disease, prevention and management of injury, and performance enhancement in sport and the workplace, as well as the benefits of sport and exercise science to work, sport, and everyday living. • Ancillary materials support instructors in teaching across disciplines as they assist students in understanding the breadth of content in this comprehensive text. Using a modular approach to teaching sport and exercise science, Biophysical Foundations of Human Movement, Third Edition, offers students a structured understanding of how the subdisciplines work independently and in tandem. Following a general introduction to the field of human movement studies, readers are introduced to basic concepts, life-span changes, and adaptations arising in response to training in each of the five major biophysical subdisciplines of human movement. Each subdiscipline is given a brief introduction, including the definition and historical development of the subdiscipline, the typical issues and problems it addresses, the levels of analysis it uses, and relevant professional training and organizations. Multi-disciplinary and cross-disciplinary approaches to human movement are also discussed along with contemporary applications. By studying the integration of knowledge from a number of the biophysical subdisciplines, students will be better prepared for advanced study and careers reliant on the integration of knowledge from various disciplines and perspectives. The third edition offers tools for retaining the material, including learning objectives and summaries in each chapter, a glossary, and lists of web-based resources. Throughout the text, special “In Focus” features highlight key organizations, individuals, and studies from around the world that have contributed to the current understanding of human movement. These features help readers appreciate the evolution of the field so that they may better understand its direction. Students interested in further study will find specialized texts for each of the subdisciplines listed in the Further Reading and References section of each chapter along with updated lists of websites. The third edition of Biophysical Foundations of Human Movement offers a comprehensive introduction for students, scientists, and practitioners involved in the many professions grounded in or related to human movement, kinesiology, and sport and exercise science. By considering the effect of adaptations in each of the biophysical subdisciplines of human movement, Biophysical Foundations of Human Movement also illustrates the important role physical activity plays in the maintenance of health throughout the life span.
