motor learning 3- CH 12 Flashcards
3 stages of Fitts and Posners Model of learning
Cognitive stage- Focuses on solving cognitive oriented probs
Associative stage- Person has learned to associate env. info with required movements to become more consistant
Autonomous stage- final stage where performance of skill is automatic
What are the 2 stages of Gentiles model
- Initial stage
2. Later stages
What happens in the initial stage and what 2 goals does the learner work to achieve
- learner gets idea of movement
1. goal to organize movement
2. discriminate b/w regulatory and non regulatory skills
What 3 characteristics does learner acquire in later stages
- adapt movement to many situations
- increase consistency
- perform w/ economy of effort
What was Bernsteins idea of learning
- likened skill acquisition to staging play with many different phases.
3 performance changes across stages of learning
- find performance characteristics at each stage ( provides closer look)
- Changes in movement coordination ( Freezing, freeing, alterations)
- changes in muscle, visual selective attention (whether visual info is important) , energy, brain activity
What type of learning curve in cigar making
negatively accelerated
What did Robertson find in visual selective attention
skilled participants performed much less errors than novice participants when there eyes were closed (used other sensory systems)
What is practice specificity hypothesis
- Learning is specific to the sources or sensory info available during practice
- when visual feedback used during practice in 1st stage of learning it continuous to be needed thru stages of learning (do something the same way u learned it)
what did Proteau and colleagues hypothesize that provided evidence of dependency of sensory feedback
because it becomes a part of the memory representation of skill( increased practice with visual system increases demand of it in future)
Is expert performance automated
No,
experts don’t like stagnation, need control to make improvements
