MODULE 2.01B Optimize Training And Players Structures / COGNITIVE ELEMENTS OF THE PLAYER

Question 1

What field of vision characteristics come through

the central field of vision (stereoscopic view)?

Answer 1

Central

Narrow view.

Little information.

High-quality information.

All the details can be seen.

Question 2

What field of vision characteristics come through

the peripheral field of vision, or monoscopic view?

Answer 2

Peripheral

Wide view.

A lot of information.

Poor-quality information.

There are fewer details.

Question 3

What does the Cognitive structure allow?

Answer 3

This structure allows the athlete to understand the characteristics of his/her surroundings better, grasp stimuli and process them, with the intention of determining their importance and significance in each particular situation, in order to make decisions.

Question 4

What is Sensory information storage?

Answer 4

This storage system may contain large amounts of sensory information for a short period of time before it is lost. Archived sensory information quickly disappears and can be stored for only half a second.

Question 5

What is Short-term memory (STM)?

Answer 5

The center of information processing. The information recorded as short-term memory from sensory storage is generally new. If this information is not repeated and memorized instantly, it is very likely to be forgotten. If a person succeeds in repeating new information for 20-30 seconds in the STM, they can learn it and transfer it to long-term memory (LTM). STM can be referred to as working memory. In line with its dynamic nature, it saves information that is relevant to the present moment only.

Question 6

What is Long-term memory?

Answer 6

Information stored in this memory is generally permanent. With STM, long-term memory information can be updated, reorganized, and strengthened.

Remember that motor learning does not normally use this approach. Instead, based on the perception-action cycle, the athlete carries out the actions he/she deems optimal based on context and his/her experience. The actions he/she carries out are increasingly optimized and adapted to the context.

Question 7

What is selective attention?

Answer 7

The ability to distinguish between relevant and irrelevant information

Question 8

What is narrowed attention?

Answer 8

An athlete’s ability to focus on the appropriate stimuli

during the game is called the focus of attention.

The focus of attention includes the athlete’s ability

to increase or decrease his/her attention when needed.

narrow attention eliminates all irrelevant stimuli and only the most relevant ones remain.

These conditions, as mentioned above, are trained.

Question 9

What are the four areas of the cognitive structure?

Answer 9

• Perceptual memory.
• Attention/concentration.
• Sensors.
• Stimuli.

Question 10

What is stimuli?

Answer 10

Perceived stimuli are responsible for triggering a series of events,

which are captured and processed by different areas.

Stimuli, in general, refers to everything that happens around a person.

Everything he/she feels interprets through the sensory organs,

perceives in a certain way and acts accordingly, correctly or incorrectly

based on past experience.

Question 11

Stimuli differentiation Depending on time:

Answer 11

• Duration: Triggers/of concentration.
• Speed.
• Differences in speed.
• Prediction of events.

Question 12

Stimuli differentiation Depending on location:

Answer 12

• Distance
• Trajectory.
• Orientation.
• Organizational.

Question 13

Stimuli differentiation According to their nature:

Answer 13

• Significant stimuli: provide relevant information to the receptor,

who chooses the best option according to his/her goal.

These stimuli are subdivided into animate/inanimate, specific/unspecific, proximal/distal, interoceptive/exteroceptive.

• Insignificant stimuli.
