Types of Feedback Flashcards
What is intrinsic feedback and examples?
-sensory information from within the performers own sensory system
-kinaesthesis
eg. feeling of hitting a golf ball correct and far
What are the advantages of intrinsic feedback?
-constantly available, movements can be felt and corrected instantly
-does not have to rely on others
-good for autonomous learners, feedback will be accurate
-concurrent, altered during performance
-quick
What are the disadvantages of intrinsic feedback?
-not good available for cognitive learners, unable to interpret information provided by body
-depends on schema, some may interpret feedback incorrectly
What is extrinsic feedback and an example?
-information from external source to a performer
-coach, results, outcome
eg. fitness test results telling performer how to improve
What are the advantages of extrinsic feedback?
-reliable
-lead to improvement and increased accuracy
-increase motivation.
-objective and information based
-good for cognitive learners
What are the disadvantages of extrinsic feedback?
-if feedback is inaccurate, performance effected negatively, negative transfer
-unreliable = motivation drops
-does not encourage kinaesthesis
-become over reliant of feedback
-hard to do concurrently
What is positive feedback and an example?
-importation about a successful performance which reinforces learning
-often praise, positive comments
eg. coach saying ‘nice shot’ when slam shot performed successfully
What are the advantages of positive feedback?
-strengthen S-R bonds
-motivating, especially for cognitive stage learners
-helps build self-esteem and confidence
-reinforces skill learning
What are the disadvantages of positive feedback?
-if undeserved, inappropriate S-R bond formation
-not specific = unaffective
-ignored = no response
-no clarity on what to do next
What is negative feedback and an example?
-information about an unsuccessful performance
eg. coach criticising netballer passing with lack of power
What are the disadvantages of negative feedback?
-demotivating, especially in cognitive stage
-deduces confidence
-doesn’t say what there doing right
-detrimental to learning process if inaccurate or unfounded
What are the advantages of negative feedback?
-motivation, determined to successed
-clear on what aspects need to improve
-good for autonomous learners, refinement of skills and fine detail
What is knowledge of performance and an example?
-information about technique from coach, video
-can also be kinaesthetic
eg. coach telling performer about leg kick technique in swimming
What are the advantages of knowledge of performance?
-good for kinaesthetic sense
-good when competing against strong opposition, focuses on positives
-shows how to improve
-increases confidence
-increase motivation
What are the disadvantages of knowledge of performance?
-detrimental if inaccurate
-some want outcomes
-overload
