From Intention to Input: Motor Cognition,Motor Performance,and the Control of Technology

Abstract

Fundamental knowledge of motor cognition is an important component in a human factors repertoire, and this chapter serves as a guide to the history, theory, and application of motor cognition research.“From intention to input” captures the scope of this chapter in that cognitive theories of motor control, neural control of movement, and the effects of feedback on movement are all discussed. The chapter progresses from an overview and history of motor cognition theories down to the neural basis for movement, then to an application of these theories via the study of specific actions. From there, rooted in the scientist-practitioner paradigm of human factors, the chapter covers applied considerations for designing control tasks and their associated inputs, taking into account individual differences in motor cognition and control and identifying critical issues in designing for input. General, applied guidelines are provided for use with current and future systems that have a motor cognition component.
