L14B: Conditions of Practice I - III

Question 1

After GMP is selected and movement is completed,
What Four types of information stored in STM?

Answer 1

A. Initial conditions of the movement
B. Parameters that were assigned to the
movement (e.g., amplitude/ absolute force or movement time)
C. Outcome feedback about the movement
D. Sensory Consequences of the movement

Question 2

What 2 schemas (rules) are formed?

Answer 2

Recall & Recognition schemas.

Question 3

RECALL

What is Schema?

Answer 3

Relation between
parameters & movement outcome

Question 4

What is a Recall Schema?

Answer 4

Question 5

What is a Recognition Schema?

Answer 5

Relation b/w sensory consequences & movement outcomes

Question 6

What can we do to enhance the schema?

Answer 6

Variability of practice enhances the schema

Practicing a variety of movements with same GMP (different parameters, initial conditions) will help form strong schemas.
– Extensive parameter & condition experiences will lead to less uncertainty and error
– Better able to estimate parameters & sensory consequences

Question 7

Variability of practice: summary
