Week 6 Flashcards
Task-intrinsic feedback can be:
- visual
- auditory
- proprio-ceptive
- tactile
Augmented feedback includes:
- knowledge of performance
2. knowledge or results
Augmented feedback is:
information provided to the learner from an external source to supplement movement-produced feedback
Is augmented feedback necessary?
YES
When is augmented FB necessary? YES, When:
- sensory pathways are impaired (disease/injury, age, accident)
- sensory information is not available
- intrinsic feedback is available but performer cannot use it (due to lack of experience)
When is augmented FB not necessary?
when skills have detectable external reference (target, basket)
What are the 3 primary positive roles of augmented feedback?
- error correction/ guidance
- motivation
- reinforcement
Error correction/ guidance (augmented feedback):
- provide information for correction of performance errors
- may include description of correct/ incorrect aspects or outcome
- can be prescription for how to fix errors
Motivation (augmented feedback) :
helps make practice less boring and repetitive; motivate the learner to continue striving toward a goal
Reinforcement (augmented feedback):
- positive = “good on ya mate!”
- negative = removal or avoidance of neg. consequences (“operation” and barrier examples)
What are some major questions to consider, given that feedback is necessary:
- how does it enhance learning?
- how can it hinder learning?
- what are the best ways to give feedback?
- when is the best time to give feedback?
What are the 3 components of delivering optimal feedback?
- content of FB
- schedule of FB
- Timing of FB
Knowledge of results (KR):
externally presented information about the outcome of performing a skill or achieving the goal of the performance
Knowledge of results is usually >
visual/ auditory
What are 4 examples/categories for knowledge of results?
- accuracy
- distance
- time goal
- force goal
Knowledge of results (KR) is sometimes redundant. Performer can often see/ fee/ hear the outcome.
- If performer _______ see and/ or feel the outcome -> KR ____________ (e.g. CVA sensory impairments)
cannot
necessary
What is one major advantage of KR?
KR can confirm the learners own assessments
Knowledge of performance (KP):
information about the movement that describes what is observed without reference to goal or outcome
What are 3 categories/ components of KP?
- kinematic (velocity, displacement, motion capture)
- kinetic (dynamometer)
- muscle activity EMG
Descriptive FB =
reports observation, with no advice on how to improve
Prescriptive FB content =
- includes advice on how to do the task the next time
- uses attentional cueing to focus learner’s attention to most pertinent information to correct the error
Feel how you transfer your weight from R to L
perscriptive
bring your foot up a little more
perscriptive
keep your head down more and eyes on the ball
perscriptive
you are putting too much spin on the ball
descriptive
you need to contact the ball just L or R of midline to eliminate the unwanted spin
perscriptive
your knee flexion has improved 15*
descriptive
next time, take a longer step
prescriptive
bend your elbow to a 45* angle
perscriptive
Which is better, descriptive or prescriptive?
consider the skill level
in the beginning which is better (prescriptive or descriptive)?
perscriptive
once the skill has been learned, which is better; prescriptive or descriptive?
descriptive
