Klavora, chapter 11 (p. 233-251) & chapter 12 (p. 254-275) Movement intelligence: a repertoire of movement experiences developed since birth, a concept similar to physical literacy, factors that influence the development of movement intelligence: Improves the way we live in important ways: lack of skill = lack of confidence = fewer options = lack of physical activity/ functional ability. Motor abilities: an individuals inherited motor abilities are considered enduring and stable traits that are the foundation for skill development and movement intelligence, (cid:862)(cid:373)oto(cid:396) a(cid:271)ilities a(cid:396)e the tools (cid:449)e (cid:374)eed to pe(cid:396)fo(cid:396)(cid:373) (cid:448)a(cid:396)ious skills(cid:863, ex. Balance, reaction time, speed, agility, coordination, and perception: different motor skills will require different combinations of motor abilities. Types of motor abilities: > 20 motor abilities, two major categories, perceptual motor abilities, e. g. , spatial awareness, coincident timing, reaction time, physical proficiency abilities, e. g. , balance, coordination, speed, strength, agility, flexibility. Skills: motor abilities form the foundation for the development of motor skills.
