Motor Behavior #3

QuestionAnswer
complexity The number of parts or components and the amount of information-processing demands that characterizes a skill
organization the relationship among the components of the skill
If the skill is _______ in complexity and ______ in organization, practice of the whole skill is the better choice low high
If the skill is _______ in complexity and ______ in organization, practice using the part method high low
fractionization type of part practice in which one part of a complex motor skill is practiced separately
simplification type of part practice in which the difficulty of some aspect of the motor skill is reduced
segmentation (progressive part) type of part practice in which one part of a motor skill is practiced until it is learned, then a second part is added to the first part, and the two parts are practiced together
practice variability the variety of movement and context characteristics a person experiences while practicing a skill
contextual interference effect the learning benefit resulting from performing multiple skills in a high contextual interface practice schedule (e.g., random practice), rather than performing the skills in a low contextual interface schedule (e.g., blocked practice)
metacognition Judgment about how much we are learning while we practice, which concerns "what we know about what we know." The assessment of this information is typically done by asking people to predict how well people will do on a retention test
elaboration hypothesis the contextual interference effect is related to the elaboration of the memory representation of the skill variations that a learner is practicing
action plan reconstruction hypothesis high amounts of contextual interference benefit learning because the interference benefit learning because the interference requires a person to reconstruct an action plan on the next practice trial for a particular skill variation
overlearning practice that continues beyond the amount needed to achieve a certain performance criterion
massed practice a practice schedule in which the amount of rest between practice sessions or trials is very short
distributed practice a practice schedule in which the amount of rest between practice sessions or trials is relatively long
______ practice schedules result in better learning for discrete motor skills massed
______ practice schedules result in better learning for gross motor skills distributed

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
