  1. Chapter 19:Motor Development PED 383: Adapted Physical Education Dr. Johnson

  2. Definition • Progressive change in movement behavior throughout the life cycle • Dynamic systems theory • We better understand the PROCESS • Phases of Motor Development • We better understand the PRODUCT

  3. Catagories • Stability • Any movement that places a premium on gaining or maintaining equilibrium in relation to the forces of gravity • Locomotion • Movement that involves a change in location of the body relative to a fixed point on the surface • Manipulation • Gross and fine motor manipulation

  4. Phases of Motor Development • Reflexive Movement Phase • Rudimentary Movement Phase • Fundamental Movement Phase • Specialized Movement Phase

  5. Reflexive Movement Phase • Involuntary, subcortically controlled movements • Start in the womb • Continue through life (this stage until 1 year) • Tables on Pg 384-384 • Information – encoding • In the womb – 4 months • Involuntary movements • Gather information, nourishment, and protection • Information – decoding • 4 months – 1 year • Voluntary control of movements • Developmental Divergence • Complete absence is less concerning than going too long

  6. Rudimentary Movement Phase • Maturationally determined behaviors seen in the normally functioning infant • birth to 2 years • Reflex Inhibition • Birth to 1 year • Movements influenced by the developing cortex • Some reflexes disappear, new reflexes immerge • Movements appear uncoordinated • Precontrol • 1-2 years • Gaining control of movements • Rapid gains in cognition and movement • Developmental Divergence • CNS disorders can hinder motor development • Sensory impairments can also highly impact development

  7. Fundamental Movement Phase • Basic movement skills that are building blocks for more development and refined movement skills • 2-7 years • Initial • 2-3 years • Improper sequences or missing parts • Poor coordination • Elementary • 4-5 years • Better control and rhythm • Mature • 6-7 years • Mechanically efficient and coordinated / controlled • Developmental Divergence • Wider gaps • Focus on outcome, not so much the steps

  8. Specialized Movement Phase • Movement skills become used for a purpose, instead of fun. (ie. Sports or recreation) • 7-14+ years • Transitional • 7-10 years • Greater form and accuracy • Combinations of skills • Application • 11-13 years • Conscious decisions about participation • Lifelong Utilization • 14+ years • Picking what they like to do, or are good at • Developmental Divergence • Health benefits as adults • Occupational or recreational
