The generalized motor program theory (gmp)

Comparison of Theories 

The generalized motor program theory (GMP) or schema theory and the dynamical systems theory are the predominant behavior theories that address how the nervous system produces a movement. The debate of movement and the contrasts of these theories centers on whether movement is created through hierarchical control in the nervous system (i.e., cortical control) or if movement control is distributed throughout cortical, subcortical, spinal, and even musculoskeletal levels of the nervous system. While compromise between these two theories may be possible, each theory has its respective adamant supporters who will argue for the support of one over the other. In this assignment, you will evaluate these theories to determine which theory you believe is the more plausible explanation.
