AB Concept:  Theories  about  how  we  control  coordinated  movement  differ  in  terms  of  the  roles  of  central  and  environmental  features  of  a  control  system.After  completing  this  chapter,  you  will  be  able  toDiscuss  the  relevance  of  motor  control  theory  for  the  practitionerDefine  the  term  coordination  as  it  relates  to  the  performance  of  motor  skillsDescribe  the  degrees  of  freedom  problem  as  it  relates  to  the  study  of  human  motor  controlCompare  and  contrast  an  open-loop  control  system  and  a  closed-loop  control  systemDescribe  a  primary  difference  between  a  motor  program–based  theory  of  motor  control  and  a  dynamical  systems  theory  of  motor  controlDefine  a  generalized  motor  program  and  describe  an  invariant  feature  and  a  parameter  proposed  to  characterize  this  programDefine  the  following  terms  associated  with  a  dynamical  systems  theory  of  motor  control:  order  and  control  parameters,  self-organization,  coordinative  structures,  and  perception-action  couplingDiscuss  how  a  motor  program–based  theory  and  a  dynamical  systems  theory  each  explain  the  basis  for  the  relative  time  characteristics  of  human  walking  and  running
