proprioceptive

Examples of proprioceptive in the following topics:

• Additional Sensory Systems

  • Proprioception is one of the subtler sensory systems, but it comes into play almost every moment.
  • The discovery of kinesthesia served as a precursor to the study of proprioception.
  • This would degrade the proprioceptive sense, but not the kinesthetic sense.
  • Another difference in proprioception and kinesthesia is that kinesthesia focuses on the body's motion or movements, while proprioception focuses more on the body's awareness of its movements and behaviors.
  • This has led to the notion that kinesthesia is more behavioral, and proprioception is more cognitive.

• Somatosensation: Pressure, Temperature, and Pain

• Lower-Level Structures

  • The cerebellum receives information from our eyes, ears, muscles, and joints about the body's current positioning (referred to as proprioception).
