Question 1

Distinguish intrinsic and extrinsic/augmented feedback

Answer 1

Intrinsic = touch, proprioception, vision, audition

Extrinsic/augmented = knowledge of results e.g. coach, or device that measure performance.

1. Motivational role “good job”
2. Direct attention to certain things that need improvement or done well
3. Informational role - provide accuracy info
4. Dependancy role - can create a dependance on info

Question 2

Know the 4 functions of augmented feedback

Answer 2

1. Motivational role “good job”
2. Direct attention to certain things that need improvement or done well
3. Informational role - provide accuracy info
4. Dependancy role - can create a dependance on info

Question 3

Distinguish KR and KP

Answer 3

KR = knowledge of result
KP = knowledge of performance

Both types of augmented feedback

KR is concerned with the outcome/end result. e.g. you were 5cm off target

KP is concerned with the quality of the movement e.g. “your hand was gripping the cue too tightly

Question 4

potential limits and compare pros and cons of KP vs KR

Answer 4

KP = knowl of result
KR = knowl of performance

KP =
- more precise and more info
- can be too much info
- can direct the attention inwards which is no as good for tasks

Question 5

feedback methods result in less frequency but aid learning

Answer 5

bandwidth feedback - only lets you know your off if you way off, otherwise if only a little off, no feedback

Question 6

why is bandwidth feedback effective

Answer 6

• because it decreases dependancy
• could increase motivation
• could increase consistency by reducing redundant corrections

Question 7

describe effects of reducing feedback frequency in terms of the guidance hypothesis

Answer 7

guidance hypothesis states that you start to depend on results

Question 8

concurrent feedback vs terminal feedback

Answer 8

concurrent directly follows execution

terminal delays when you get feedback until after attempt and forces you to think and process your error before getting the result = enhanced learning

Question 9

relate concurrent feedback to guidance hypothesis

Answer 9

if you get feedback immediately you start to rely on it

Question 10

which is better, short or long feedback delay

Answer 10

long because process more
