心理学在心理学和生理学的边界上对某一学科的研究作者的叙述是基于人类和动物工作的实验数据,特别强调说明性临床病例。目标导向运动的组织是人类和其他动物大脑与行为关系的核心问题。运动是研究大脑机制和心理功能的一条线索。在神经生理学实验室中使用行为动物,可以直接研究离散神经机制在控制运动输出中的作用。这些机制的作用可以通过在人类中观察到的运动综合征的实验再现来评估。运动响应的运动学描述可以直接转移到运动系统的理论模型和它们的技术应用,如人工智能和机器人。最后,在运动控制研究中使用来自认知心理学的概念,为目标导向运动的心理表征开辟了新的研究领域。
An investigation of a subject at the boundaries of psychology and physiology. The author's account is based upon experimental data from human and animal work with particular emphasis on illustrative clinical cases. The organization of goal-directed movements is a problem central to the relations of brain and behaviour in humans and other animals. Movement represents a clue to the study of brain mechanisms and psychological functions. The use of behaving animals in neurophysiological laboratories has allowed direct investigation of the role of discrete neural mechanisms in controlling motor output. The contribution that these mechanisms make can be assessed by reproducing experimentally the motor syndromes observed in man. Kinematic description of motor responses may be directly transferable to theoretical models of motor systems and to their technological applications such as artificial intelligence and robotics. Finally, the use of concepts derived from cognitive psychology in the study of motor control has opened new fields of investigation concerning the mental representation of goal-directed movements.
