Second‚ I will give a summary of the study on affordances and how this perception-action connection applies to development. Finally‚ I will be providing some of my own insight‚ thoughts‚ and arguments on the studies and material provided in the following. After reading this paper‚ one should have a general understanding of what it takes for a being to be able to reach

mechanisms involved in motor development involve some genetic components that determine the physical size of body parts at a given age‚ as well as aspects of muscle and bone strength. The main areas of the brain involved in motor skills are the frontal cortex‚ parietal cortex and basal ganglia. The dorsolateral frontal cortex is responsible for strategic processing. The parietal cortex is important in controlling perceptual-motor integration and the basal ganglia and supplementary motor cortex are responsible

Motor learning can be related to many different fields of Kinesiology‚ but specifically‚ motor learning has a great impact in the field of Physical Therapy. In the field of Physical Therapy‚ patients that come in to receive treatment usually suffer from an injury‚ physical disability‚ or disease that has caused them to have a difficult time performing certain motor skills that are necessary for daily life living or for a certain activity. Motor Learning mostly deals with the relearning of motor skills

Motor Learning in Occupational Therapy Even though the motor learning process is commonly over looked in day to day life‚ without motor learning we would not have reasoning for the things we do. Research on motor learning makes it possible to figure out how to learn an action in the most effective way. Naturally‚ we learn to utilize our motor skills in our occupations.
