Information processing model Flashcards
1
Q
What are the stages of information processing model?
A
Input
Decision Making
Output
Feedback
2
Q
Input stage
A
Performer picks up information from the display with the five
senses
3
Q
What are the five senses?
A
Sight
Auditory
Touch
Balence
Kinesthesis
4
Q
Selective attention
A
- Part of the decision
making/Perceptual mechanism stage - Filter/ seperate relevant information from irrelevant information
- Perception
5
Q
How to improve Selective
Attention
A
- Increase the intensity of the stimulus
- Increase time to react
- Analysis of strengths and weaknesses
- Increase fitness levels
- Practice with distractions
- Mental rehersal
- Make stimuli unique
- Highlight specific cues
- Optimal arousal levels,
motivation - Warning signals
6
Q
Perceptual mechanism
A
Detection
Comparison
Recognition
7
Q
Detection stage
A
Performer has picked up relevant information and has identified what is important using senses and selective attention
8
Q
Comparison stage
A
- Trying to match the information identified as important, to information already in the memory
- This is why the memory system is also important to the performer
9
Q
Recognition stage
A
- The performer has used the information from the memory to identify an appropriate response
- This response can be put into action
10
Q
Translateory mechanism
A
- Can help convert information so decisions can be made
- Uses past experiences so that the information received can be linked with these past experiences and sent to the memory system
- Similar actions that have been stored in the memory can bar recognised then used
- Stored in memory as a form of a motor programme
11
Q
Effector mechanism
A
Is the network of nerves that is responsible for delivering decisions made during the perceptual process to the muscles, so that the muscles can perform the action
