The part of information processing that can not be observed.
What is decision-making?
100
Focusing on relevant information while ignoring irrelevant information.
What is selective attention?
100
A way of doing something. A way of performing a sports skill.
What is technique?
100
A relatively permanent change in performance resulting from practice or past experience. It is a life-long process.
What is learning?
100
Teacher driven.
What is command style?
200
Sensory nerve end receptors; Located in the lining of the mucous membrane of the respiratory and digestive tracts / internal visceral organs / vascular system / blood vessels (blood pH) / chemoreceptors / nociceptors (free nerve endings in most body tissues that respond to potentially damaging stimuli / pain)
What are interoceptors?
200
The process of storing information and motor programs within the nervous system.
What is memory?
200
Natural, innate characteristics that aid or hinder skill development.
What are abilities?
200
An unpleasant response designed to prevent the occurrence of unwanted behavior.
What is punishment?
200
The process by which learning in one situation aids or hinders learning in another, often similar, situation.
What is transfer?
300
A set of muscle commands that allow movements to be preformed w/o peripheral feedback. (e.g. hitting a tennis ball, catching a basketball), or a theoretical set of ‘instructions’ stored in the memory, which coordinates the muscles to produce the required action.
What is a motor program/programme?
300
Memory that is limited, last about .5 seconds, and is generally not retrievable.
What is short-term sensory store?
300
Consistency, accuracy and control.
What is the difference between a skilled performer and a novice performer? What are characteristics that the skilled performer possesses?
300
The giving of a reward such that the rewarded behavior will be repeated;(e.g. praise for a well-timed pass in hockey)
What is the reinforcement of learning?
300
A practice schedule or program in which practice sessions are interspersed with rest periods, which are longer than the practice sessions.
What is distributed practice?
400
When two stimuli are presented close together, the reaction time to the second stimulus is slower than normal reaction time.
What is psychological refractory period?
400
Techniques/strategies that aid in memory. Name 4.
What are rehearsal, coding, brevity, clarity, chunking, organization, association and practice?
400
Trunk strength
Gross body coordination
Gross body equilibrium
What are types of physical proficiency abilities?
400
Demonstration of the solving of a problem or task at a given moment in time. A temporary occurrence, fluctuating over time. Used to infer learning.
What is performance?
400
Skill to Skill; Stage to Stage; Bilateral; Practice to Performance.
What are types of transfer?
500
A more complex processing model includes sense organs, perception, short-term memory, long-term memory, decision-making, effector control and feedback.
What is Welford's model of information processing?
500
Going over the skill (mentally, physically, verbally) over and over again.
What is rehearsal? What is practice?
500
Reaction time
Speed of arm movement
Rate control (coincidence-anticipation
Manual dexterity
Arm-hand steadiness
What are perceptual motor (psychomotor) abilities?
500
Intermediate phase of learning. The learner now understands the aim of the activity. Movement patterns are more fluent and integrated.
What is associative?
500
The learner is introduced to the whole skill initially, or a modified version: the skill is then broken down into parts and practiced separately: they are integrated into the whole skill at the end.
What is the whole-part-whole method of presentation (teaching)?
