Lecture 29 Flashcards
gymnasts outperform other sports in what
postural control
children navigate a critical period of perceptual motor development between the ages of approximately ..
6-8 years of age
in this critical period of perceptual motor development that kids go through the begin to :
1- use vision differently to control posture
2- make better use of vestibular and kinaesthetic cues to control posture
3- have a changing capacity to pay attention to environmental and other cues that inform motor behaviour
If you are wanting to examine how kids control their body compared to kids who didnt do gymnastics what kind of study should I conduct
Longitudinal= look at them over time
what age were the kids that neil did his gymnastics study on
5-8
what were the two groups in Neils gymnastics study
educational gymnastics vs typical physical education
what was study one of the gymanstics study
static posture
what was study two of the gymanstics study
dynamic posture
what was study three of the gymanstics study
self perceived competence of the kids
what group was better at perceiving their abilities
gymnastics kids
When children were invested in looking at something they
Froze degrees of freedom
There was a weak realtionship between percieved and actual competence in
Young children 6-7 Years
Moderate relationship between percieved and actual competence in
in older children 11 years
