Abstract

The basic physiological processes active in voluntary and reflexive movement are reviewed and analyzed in light of recent data. The individual and interactive actions of such processes (i.e., rate, recruitment, synergy, feedbacks) are integrated and presented as a limb joint control system including upper, lower, perceptive, and reflexive hierarchical closed-loop regulators emphasizing the role of various feedback modalities.
