Information processing 9.1 Flashcards
What are the 5 senses
- kinesthesis
- auditory
- touch
- balance
- sight
What are the 2 external senses
sight
auditory
What are the 3 internal senses
kinesthesis
touch
balance
What is selective attention
Filtering information from relevant and irrelevant information
What’s the first stage of whitings model
input data from display
What’s the second stage of whitings model
receptor systems
What’s the third stage of whitings model
perceptual mechanism
What’s the fourth stage of whitings model
translatory mechanism
What’s the fifth stage of whitings model
effector mechanism
What’s the sixth stage of whitings model
muscular system
What’s the seventh stage of whitings model
output data
what’s the eighth stage of whitings model
feedback data
What’s the environment
contains the information needed to perform
What’s the display
sporting information available from the environment
What are the receptor systems
- sight
- sound
- balance
- touch
- kinesthesis
What does perceptual mechanisms do
detects the host of information picked up by the receptors and filters it into relevant and irrelevant information
What does the translatory mechanism do
compare relevant information to a past memory in the LTM
What does the effector mechanism do
Sends coded impulse to muscles
What does the muscular system do
picks up impulse and begins to contract
What does the output data do
response beings action is complete
What does the feedback data do
receive feedback in different forms
What is an example of selective attention
Badminton player focusing on the cock rather than someone in the crowd
What are the benefits of selective attention
It improves your reaction time
How does selective attention improve your reaction time
Hicks law
What is Hicks law
The more stimuli there is to react to the longer your reaction time is
At what number of stimuli does Hicks law plateau at
7
Why can’t you process to much information
Working memory has a limited capacity so too much info could affect the memory function
What is the effector mechanism and muscular output
Network of nerves
What are the 3 parts of the perceptual mechanism
- Detection
- Comparison
- Recognition
What does the detection stage mean in the perceptual mechanism
the performer has picked up relevant information and identified it as important
How did the performer detect the information in the perceptual mechanism
Using their senses
What does the comparison stage do in the perceptual mechanism
Matches relevant information to information already in the memory of the performer
What happens in the recognition stage of the perceptual mechanism
Used information from the memory to identify an appropriate response
