Knowledge and ability to understand:
-the prenatal and postnatal normal development
-cognitive and neurophysiological aspects that are the basis of the various perceptual and motor skills
-the ability to properly observe, analyze and interpret normal motor behaviours
-the classification of motor skills and abilities, the determining factors and their development
-essential elements and phases of motor learning
-physiological responses induced by exercise, both acute and long-term
-general principles and physiological adaptations of physical training
-physical-motor functional evaluation through motor tests
Ability to apply knowledge and understanding to:
-the physiology and physiopathology of biological systems, with particular reference to functional alterations of the motor apparatus susceptible to physiotherapy intervention
-the observation and the analysis of normal and pathological movement and developmental alterations
-the programming of therapeutic exercise

The prerequisites are annually deliberated by the Graduate Council.

Written and/or oral exam

-The meaning of the normal movement in relation to pathological deviation
-Adultocentric model, statistical model, analytical model
-Ontogenetic recapitulation of phylogeny
-The preparation for birth
-The functions for survival: the need to breathe, to nourish, to defend. The containment
-General movements during embryonic and fetal development
-The movement in the infant and the preterm
-Psycho-motor development between 0 and 24 months:
>visual exploration, the discovery of space and object, the relationship
>the body image, the spatial coordinates
>the development of the handling capacity
>the development of the locomotor function
-The assessment of growth and maturation: evaluation methods
-Qualitative changes in motor skills: sequencing, locomotor skills, ballistic skills, ability to receive and intercept, weight transfer skills
-Sensory and perceptual development: vision, kinesthesia, hearing; development and levels of multisensory integration; the balance
-Movement, physical activity, exercise, fitness: definitions and general principles
-Exercise:
>muscular plasticity
>processes of production and transfer of energy (aerobic and anaerobic metabolism, interaction between the two systems)
>initial adjustments to the exercise
>acute physiological response to exercise
>training: general principles and physiological adaptations
>neuromuscular fatigue
>candidates for physical training
-Motor skills: from basic motor schemes to skills
>organic-muscular capacity
>coordination skills
>flexibility
