MCML Flashcards
What 4 things are stored into memory schema after movement?
- initial movement conditions
- parameters used in general motor program
- knowledge of results
- sensory consequences of movement
classical conditioning
conditioned stimulus causes response
operant conditioning
behaviors rewarded tend to be repeated (punished, not)
procedural learning
learning tasks that can be performed without attention (habit)
declarative learning
knowledge that can be recalled, requires awareness, attention, and reflection
Why are transitions important?
period of stability and instability (instability after brain injury-push chronic patients into instability!)
*use it to increase performance in variability and PROBLEM SOLVING
What is gordon’s investment principle?
task oriented theory
old strategy gets you this far—
new strategy gets you farther
PATIENT MAY THINK THEY ARE GETTING WORSE, BUT ITS BETTER LONG TERM
Stages of motor learning: Fitts and Posner
- cognitive stage
- associative stage
- autonomous stage
What is the cognitive stage of motor learning (fitts and posner)
1st stage
conscious process of task
lots of errors and variability
what is associative stage of motor learning?
selection of best strategy for task, begin to refine the skill
performance less variable, more accurate
what is the autonomous stage of motor learning?
minimal attention required
error detection is present
STABLE PERFORMANCE
What does the novice do to control degrees of freedom?
simplify movement, less DFs
When does learner begin to release DFs by allowing movement at more joints in a task?
advanced
expert ____ degrees of freedom are _____
all degrees of freedom released necessary
*most efficient task performance
What does Newell’s theory of learning as exploration state?
- practice: search for strategies to solve task
- perceptual and motor systems are mapped into best task solution
- perception has PRESCRIPTIVE (understand goal/movement) and FEEDBACK ROLE (Kof P and K of Results)
