Skill Classification
This concept in motor learning is described as the act of executing a skill, is observable, and is used to infer learning.
Performance
The process by which meaning is attached to sensory information.
Perception
Which photoreceptor is specialized for color vision?
cones
Controls the flow of information between the two storage systems, regulates information processing and attentional activities.
Central executive
This brain area plays key role in detecting and correcting errors
Cerebellum
What is a skill that is organized in such a way that the action unfolds without a recognized beginning or end in an ongoing and often repetitive fashion.
Continuous skill
is the period of time between the onset of the muscle activity and movement initiation.
Motor time
Which visual pathway is specialized for dim light and enables us to see shapes and movement as well as discriminate between different shades of light and dark?
Ambient vision
This type of long term memory is responsible for short term storage of spoken and written material.
Phonological loop
This brain structure plays a key role in regulating the intensity of movement parameters
Basal Ganglia
A capacity underlying perofrmance is known as?
Ability
A track athlete reacting to the start gun to being running is an example of what type of reaction time?
Simple reaction time
Important for depth-perception when 3-dimensional features involved in performance situation
Binocular vision
Updating memories after retrieving the memory into short-term memory is known as
Reconsolidation
Areas of the cerebral cortex that are not involved in primary motor or sensory functions and involved in higher mental functions such as learning, remembering, thinking, and speaking
Association areas
Based on the Gentile’s multidimensional classification system, a basketball free throw can be classified in which categories?
Environmental context is stationary, involves no variability.
what is the deliberate presentation of false precues in order to prompt an incorrect response.
Deception
This is also known as time-to-contact and allows us to understand when we are going to contact somthing or when something is going to contact us.
TAU
This type of long term memory develops slowly overtime through trial and error, aided by isntructions and demonstrations, and are ressitant to memory loss.
Procedural long term memory
Which cortex in the parietal lobe process sensory information, specifically, proprioceptive information and sensations of touch and movement perception?
Somatosensory cortex
What are the 4 questions you must ask when utilizing the multidimensional classification system to understand the demands that a task imposes on a learner?
(1) Are the regulatory conditions stable or in motion? (2) Do the regulatory conditions remain fixed (no-intertrial variability), or do they change (inter-trial variability) with each performance attempt. (3) Is the performer required to change locations or maintain body position when performing the task? (4) Does the task require the performer to manipulate an object or opponent?
The thrid stage of the information processing model is known as?
Response selection
this type of vision functions to identify objects located primarily in the center of the visual field
Focal vision
this states memory recall will be enhanced when contextual factors are congruent between memory encoding and memory retrieval
Encoding specificity principle
Medulla oblongata
