      I appreciate the motor control study guide but I feel like it is different than Campbell. I find Campbell very confusing. I actually find motor control theories extremely confusing overall. Any thoughts on tackling these?

      Sheila,
      I agree that the numerous theories can be confusing. We used Shumway-Cook and Woollacott, 5th edition, as they are the gold standard for motor learning and control. We feel that the test will have more questions on newer theories, however, some knowledge of the basic premises of older theories would be important. Campbell’s text has some nice sections on application- that is probably the most valuable part of that text.

      Also, we suspect that there will be questions specific to practice and feedback, as these are areas with a lot of pediatric research and have the most clinical applicability.
