Motor control loss: Difference between revisions

'''Motor control''' is the process by which humans and other animals organize and execute their physical actions. Fundamentally, it is the integration of sensory information (both about the world and the current state of the body) to determine the appropriate set of muscle forces and joint activations to generate some desired movement or action. This process requires cooperative interaction between the central nervous system and the musculoskeletal system, and is thus the result of a combination of information processing, coordination, mechanics, physics, and cognition. Successful motor control is crucial to interacting with the world; it not only determines action capabilities, but regulates balance and stability as well.

'''Motor control loss''' can be defined as a suppression of the process by which humans and other animals organize and execute their physical actions. Fundamentally, it is the integration of sensory information (both about the world and the current state of the body) to determine the appropriate set of muscle forces and joint activations to generate some desired movement or action. This process requires cooperative interaction between the central nervous system and the musculoskeletal system, and is thus the result of a combination of information processing, coordination, mechanics, physics, and cognition. Successful motor control is crucial to interacting with the world; it not only determines action capabilities, but regulates balance and stability as well.

In terms of [[hallucinogens|hallucinogenic drugs]], although in certain contexts these substances can actually enhance motor control through the component known as [[Bodily control enhancement|increased bodily control]], it's worth noting that more often than not they simply decrease it.
