| A | B |
|---|
| Open and Closed Continuum | Concerned with the effects of the environment on perfoermance |
| Open skills | Environment constantly changing, performer continually adapting |
| Closed skill | Predictable environment |
| Externally/Internally Paced Continuum | Concerned with the timing of the movement |
| Internally or self-paced | The performer controls when |
| Externally paced | The environment including the opposition controls when and how |
| Four Phases of Information Processing | Input, decision making, output, feedback |
| Three phases of learning | Cognitive, associative, autonomous |
| Cognitive Learner | Identifies and develops the component parts of the skill |
| Associative learner | Links component parts of the skill into a smooth action |
| Autonomous Learner | Has learned and developed the skill so that it has become automatic |
| Feedback | Information relayed to the athlete about the performance |
| Intrinsic feedback | Information received by the athlete from the athlete |
| Kinaesthetic feedback | Intrinsic feedback - how did it feel |
| Extrinsic feedback | Information received by the athlete from an external source eg coach |
| Types of extrinsic feedback | Visual (video, photo) verbal |
| Knowledge of result | Was the outcome successful? |
| Knowledge of performance | Feedback about the performance of the skill |
| Positive feedback | Well done, you remembered too...used in the cognitive and associative phase of learning |
| Negative feedback | You didn't remember to... generally used with athletes in the autonomous pahse of learning |
