exam #2 (m.b) Flashcards
for this lab, the three conditions were ‘‘eyes open’’, ‘‘eyes closed’’, and ‘‘eyes closed w/a 20 second delay’’
true
for this lab, scores were measured from the front of the performer’s right foot to the target line/distance.
true
when learning one skill has a negative effect on learning a 2nd skill, negative transfer is demonstrated
true
ON PHYSICAL COPY OF QUIZ
which of the following are true?
- the empty blank for #2 should read ‘‘perform skill B’’
- the research design would investigate transfer between 2 skills=
- the pre-test and post-test would involve the same measurements.
-the empty blank for #1 should read ‘’ no practice’’
which of the following would best apply to investigating whether performing the skill of course helped one perform ‘‘putting’’ on an official, country club golf course
transfer of environmental context
which of the following are true?
- the empty blank for #1 should read ‘‘no practice’’
- the empty blank for #2 should read ‘‘swim the front crawl in the ocean.’’
-the research design would investigate transfer of context for a skill
which of the following would best apply to practicing flat serves, slice serves, and topsin serves in a tennis practice session?
inter-skill variablity
which of the following would best apply to reducing the height of the steps/stairs for a client who is practicing walking up the stairs following a stroke?
simplification
practicing downhill skiing should involve little to no inter-trial variability
false
a softball pitcher making a small change in the throwing motion for a particular pitch is an example of varying the task within a practice session
false
blocked practice results in better practice performance compared to random practice.
true
high contextual interference is most closely linked to random practice compared to blocked practice
true
high variability in practice would be best for advanced performers compared to beginners.
true
Monday - practice foul shots then jump shots then foul shots, Tuesday - practice lay-up then foul shots then lay ups, Wednesday - practice jump shots then foul shots then lay ups.
Monday - practice foul shots, Tuesday - practice lay-ups, Wednesday - practice jump shots.
Monday - practice foul shots then lay-ups then jump shots, Tueday -practice foul shots then lay ups then jumping shots, Wednesday - practice foul shots then lay-ups then jump shots.
R
B
S
which of the following are true concerning distributed practice as compared to massed practice?
- less fatigue
- decreased opps. for memory consolidation
- better performance in retention
-involves short and frequent practice sessions with long rest between sessions.
one pathway of augmented feedback is the sensory feedback provided by proprioreceptors
task-intrinsic feedback does not occur while doing a skill.
knowledge of performance would be most helpful for an expert performer compared to a beginner
most knowledge of results feedback is concurrent.
knowledge of performance is task-intrinsic feedback
which of the following would help reduce frequency of feedback?
-giving a client feedback after a block of 15 trials compared to a block of 5 trials
-client self-selecting when he or she wants feedback
-professional providing feedback only when the amount of error in a client’s performance is greater than a pre-determined acceptable range of performance error.
information about performing a skill that is added to sensory feedback and comes from a source external to the person performing the skill
augmented feedback
the sensory feedback that is naturally available while performing a skill
task-intrinsic feedback
person-task-environment
motor learning triangle
gives information about the outcome of performing a skill
knowledge of results
gives information about the technique of doing a skill
knowledge of performance
strength coach giving technique tips while a client does a squat (at the same time)
concurrent feedback
providing information after a skill is performed
terminal feedback
breaking a skill down to it’s component parts and time periods
task analysis
which of the following are true?
- evidence shows to 5 to 60 seconds is the best range of time for the the post-feedback delay interval
- for the feedback delay interval, information processing in the brain is taking place.
- error detection capabilities can be developed during the feedback delay interval
- performers should be envouraged to self-evaluate their performance during the post-feedback delay interval.
-the feedback provided right after the feedback delay interval is about an outcome of the performance
for the studies shown in class, greater bandwidths, giving a summary feedback after 15 trials, and fading the frequency of feedback (eg. 50% of the time compared to 100%) all showed higher retention (less error).
true
the skeletal ages may differ of children whose chronological age is 8-year old, as compared to another age?
true
in terms of physical maturation, an immature active child will tend to score higher on tests of physical fitness than a more mature inactive child.
false
throwing and catching are manipulative skills
true
movement skills like hopping and skipping do not naturally … as children age
true
near to far
proximal - distal
increase in size of the body, as a whole or it’s parts
growth
the study of changes in motor behaviors across the lifespan
motor development
includes acquiring behaviors such as socially and physically
development
process of moving towards a finished biological state
maturation
voluntary
movement skills
skipping, walking, running
locomotor skills
head to toe
cephalocaudal
involuntary
reflexes
motor development is age related but not necessarily age-dependent means that movement skills and motor milestones in children occur only at one specific month of age.
false
DIAGRAM QUESTIONS: PHYSICAL COPY
a higher score was considered better for the study
true
delayed K of R showed higher retention of the skill compared to instantaneous K of R.
true
'’acquisition’’ refers to a time period when transfer of learning is tested.
false
'’retention’’ refers to whether skill performance is maintained over time
true
