Author Description

All undergraduate and most graduate kinesiology, PETE, etc. programs require students to complete motor learning, motor development, and motor control coursework, yet no textbooks provide direct and explicit implications for disability. This book will provide the general concepts of motor behavior but will directly relate them to examples in disability while also providing a more in-depth understanding of the constraints that should be considered with physical, cognitive, and social, emotional, behavioral disabilities. Students who will be working with individuals with disabilities typically lack the knowledge and more in depth understanding necessary to be able to translate these concepts to disability.
