Motor Learning
Motor learning is the process through which individuals acquire and refine skills involving movement. It involves changes in the brain and nervous system that enable a person to perform tasks more efficiently and accurately. This learning can occur through practice, experience, and feedback, leading to improved coordination and control of movements.
The process of motor learning is often divided into three stages: cognitive, associative, and autonomous. In the cognitive stage, individuals understand the task and its requirements. The associative stage involves refining the skill through practice, while the autonomous stage allows for the skill to be performed automatically, requiring less conscious effort.
