Motor Control Learning Flashcards
Cognitive stage of learning
Experiments with a variety of strategies and selects best strategy
Performance variable
Improvements quite large
Associative stage of learning
Refine skill
Less variability
Improvement slower
Lasts days to month depending on performer
Autonomous stage of learning
Low degree of attention required
Autonomous of skill
Better able to added in a secondary task
Degree of freedom theory
As task is learned and advanced the performer adds in joints to control movement
Requires external support early on
Closed motor skills
Require refinement of a single or limited number of movements
Open motor skills
Requires a diversity of movement patterns
Intrinsic feedback
Feedback that comes to the individual simply through the various sensory systems as a result of normal movement
Extrinsic feedback
Is information that supplements intrinsic feedback
-example instructing a patent
Terminal feedback
Extrinsic feedback provided before or after the task
Concurrent feedback
Providing verbal or manual cues as tasked is performed
Knowledge of results
Terminal feedback about the outcome of the movement, in terms of the movement goal
Knowledge of performance
Augmented feedback about the nature of the movement produced
Descriptive (general) feedback
Indicates something you did, right or wrong
Ie there was no follow through
Prescriptive feedback
Provides you with precise correction statements about how to improve
Better results then descriptive
Delayed feedback
After the performance
