Motor Learning Flashcards
Learning has occurred when _______.
Effects are permanent.
If effects are transitory or temporary, _________ did not occur.
Learning
The ability to perform a task without feedback and guidance.
Retention
Three internal factors that contribute to learning:
Attention
Motivation
Memory
Three factors that contribute to external learning:
Practice
Feedback
Verbal cues
4 types of practice variations:
Blocked
Serial
Random
Mental
Massed practice have _____ amounts of rest time.
small
Distributed practice has relatively ______ amounts of rest time.
Relatively large
Same task practiced repeatedly within a session, uninterrupted by the practice of another task.
Blocked practice
A predictable and repeating order during practice.
Serial practice
Practicing tasks without any order.
Random practice
Rehearsing a task in the mind.
Mental practice
TERM: feedback given during each trial.
Concurrent feedback
TERM: feedback given at the end of each repetition.
Terminal feedback
TERM: Feedback given after every trial.
Constant feedback
TERM: feedback given after a predetermined number of repetitions or trials presented in summary.
Summed feedback
TERM: initially feedback given every trial, and then less frequently.
Faded feedback
TERM: feedback is only given when performance is outside of a given parameter (error range).
Bandwidth feedback
BROAD TERM: feedback that a person gets during or after a movement or activity.
Intrinsic feedback
BROAD TERM: augmented or artificial feedback a person gets during or after a movement or activity.
extrinsic feedback
Two types of extrinsic feedback:
knowledge of performance
knowledge of results
TERM: information about the success in meeting a goal.
Knowledge of results
TERM: information about actions that lead to the achievement or failure of a task or goal.
Knowledge of performance
