motor behavior - motor learning

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
what is motor learning?   SET OF PROCESSES associated with practice or experience leading to relatively permanent changes in the CAPABILITY FOR PRODUCING SKILLED MOMVEMENT  
🗑
what is motor performance?   An observable attempt to produce voluntary movement  
🗑
How is motor performance seen during practice sessions: temporary or permanent?   Temporary - it is susceptible of fluctuations due to temporary factors  
🗑
Recovery of Function for motor learning involve?   it involves the reorganization of both perception and action systems in relation to specific tasks and environments  
🗑
Information processing of motor learning   Stimulus identification, response selection, response programming  
🗑
describe the stimulus-identification stage of the information processing of motor learning   detection and processing of stimulus stimulus detection - stimulus is sensed and processed for meaning pattern recognition - recognition of stimulus as part of a meaningful pattern  
🗑
A stimulus is sensed and processed describes what stage of information processing?   Stimulus detection - stimulus identification stage  
🗑
Pattern recognition - re?cognition of a stimulus as part of a meaningful pattern is part of what stage of information processing   Stimulus identification stage  
🗑
describe the response-selection stage of information processing   decision on response to make or not to make larger number of stimulus-response alternatives makes response selection longer stimulus-response compatibility decreases response time  
🗑
the larger the number of stimulus-response alternatives makes the response selection larger describes what stage of information processing   response-selection stage  
🗑
what is the response-programming stage of information processing   it is the preparation of a motor system for action selection of appropriate motor program ready motor system for action (feedforward or tuning of system)  
🗑
the retention and storage of knowledge or ability that has been learned is called?   memory  
🗑
Learning is the process as to ______ is the product   memory  
🗑
how is Explicit memory (declarative memory), which describes Facts and Events, acquired?   through processing and storage  
🗑
where is explicit memory stored?   medial temporal lobe and the hippocampus  
🗑
Declarative (Explicit) Learning requires process such as?   awareness, attention, and reflection  
🗑
this type of learning is practiced in other ways other than the one in which it was learning   declarative (explicit) learning  
🗑
this type of learning involved four different types of processing: encoding, consolidation, storage, and retrieval   declarative (explicit) learning  
🗑
what are the four types of processing for declarative learning?   encoding, consolidation, storage, and retrieval  
🗑
procedural (implicit) learning involved improvements are that are: sudden or gradual   gradual and with practice  
🗑
the goal of procedural (implicit) learning is for the action to become?   automatic - without conscious thought or attention  
🗑
procedural learning involves: a number of different subtypes, each controlled by different parts of the brain or only one subtype which is controlled my a specific motor program?   number of subtypes, each controlled by different parts of the brain  
🗑
nondeclarative (implicit) learning, involves what categories?   procedural (striatum), priming (neocortex), associative (emotional - amygdala, skeletal musculature - cerebellum) and nonassociative (reflex pathways)  
🗑
Nonassociative memory includes these two forms of learning   habitation and sensitization  
🗑
habituation?   a decreased response that occurs as a result of repeated exposure to a non-painful stimulus - involves reflex pathways  
🗑
Sensitization?   an increased responsiveness following a threatening or noxious stimulus - involves reflex pathways  
🗑
associative memory involves what two forms of learning?   classical and operant conditioning  
🗑
through associative forms of learning what happens?   a person learns to predict relationships which can involve the cerebellum and premotor cortex  
🗑
classical conditioning   consists of learning to pair two stimuli  
🗑
operant, or instrumental conditioning   trial and error learning learn about the relationship between behavior and the consequence of that behavior ex.) lab rat finds lever, pushes level, and food is dispensed. After repeated trials, learns to associate lever with food  
🗑
what is Law of Effect?   behaviors that are rewarded tend to be repeated behaviors that are followed by negative stimuli (punishment) are usually not repeated  
🗑
the Law of Effect is based off of what form of learning?   associative forms of learning - operant conditioning  
🗑
this term describes a procedural memory. It helps with formation of movements. Speed, precision, accuracy, and efficiency are involved. It is both implicit and explicit   Motor Skill  
🗑
this is the highest and most complex form of movement activity   motor skill  
🗑
the model of memory includes what three topics?   short-term sensory store-->short-term memory-->long-term memory  
🗑
what is the short-term sensory store?   most peripheral memory system. Holds incoming information by modality (visual, auditory) until person identifies it. Believed to me limited in capacity and extremely brief in duration  
🗑
if we have trouble with the peripheral system, we will have a problem with?   short-term sensory store  
🗑
what is short-term memory   selective attention selects some information for further processing. Allows people to retrieve, rehearse, process, and transfer information to long-term memory. Believe to be limited in capacity and brief in duration ( 7 plus/minus 2 bits of info)  
🗑
Alzheimer's patients have trouble with this   short-term memory  
🗑
this is important to for it to become processed by selective attention for processing   short-term memory  
🗑
describe long-term memory   holds well-learned information and experiences. believed to be vast in capacity and unlimited in duration. short-term phase (sensitization) and long-term phase involving protein synthesis and structural changes  
🗑
the short-term phase of long term memory involves?   sensitization - changes in preexisting protein structures  
🗑
the long-term phase of long-term memory involves?   protein synthesis of new protein which is genetically influence. This influence also encompasses the growth of new synaptic connections  
🗑
What is Adam's closed-loop theory   sensory feedback used for the ongoing production of skilled movement  
🗑
Adam's closed-loop theory utilizes two traces. What are they?   Memory Trace & Perceptual trace  
🗑
Adam's closed-loop theory consists of memory trace. What is memory trace?   used in the selection and initiation of the movement (type of motor program) - the correct motor program  
🗑
Adam's closed-loop theory consists of perceptual trace. What is perceptual trace?   built up over a period of practice and become the internal reference of correctness. "what we are going to compare to" "reference of correctness"  
🗑
the more we use a movement the stronger it gets without error describes what theory?   Adam's closed-loop theory.  
🗑
the fewer the errors & fewer the variations, the quicker we are at laying down perceptual trace. This describes what theory?   Adam's closed-loop theory  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
