KIN 312 CSULB Final Exam Questions with well explained answers

Feedback - Answer-a generic term that describes information a person receives about the performance of a skill during or after the performance What are the 2 categories of Feedback? - Answer-Task-Intrinsic (sensory) Augmented (task-extrinsic) Task-Intrinsic Feedback - Answer-performance related sensory information that is naturally available to the performer (Visual, tactile, auditory, proprioceptive) Augmented Feedback - Answer-information that is provided to the learner from an external source. This feedback adds to or enhances the task-intrinsic information. What are the two types of Augmented Feedback? - Answer-Knowledge of Results Knowledge of Performance Knowledge of Results (KR) - Answer-category of augmented feedback that gives information about the outcome of an attempt to perform a skill Knowledge of Performance (KP) - Answer-category of augmented feedback that gives information about the movement characteristics that led to a performance outcome KR is especially beneficial when? - Answer-1. Confirm subjective assessment of task-intrinsic feedback 2. Determine performance outcome when task-intrinsic information is not available 3. Motivate the performer to continue 4. Establish a "discovery learning" practice strategy KP is especially beneficial when? - Answer-1. Learn skills with specific movement2. Improve specific movements or correct specific movement errors 3. Learn to activate specific muscles 4. Facilitate learning when KR is redundant with task-intrinsic feedback What are the types of Knowledge of Performance? - Answer-Descriptive (describes error) and Prescriptive (describes error and prescribes how to correct it) Which KP is better to facilitate skill learning? - Answer-It depends which stage of learning the performer is in. Initial Stage - Prescriptive Later Stages - Descriptive Concurrent Augmented Feedback - Answer-augmented feedback that is provided while a person is performing a skill or making a movement Terminal Augmented Feedback - Answer-augmented feedback that is provided after a person has completed the performance of a skill or a movement What is the traditional view of presenting augmented feedback? - Answer-100% frequency is best for learning (aug. feedback for every trial) What is the current view of presenting augmented feedback? - Answer-Less than 100% frequency is best for learning Why Is Less Than 100% Frequency of Augmented Feedback Better for Learning - Answer-1. Increases Problem Solving Activity 2. Guidance Hypothesis Guidance Hypothesis - Answer-Hypothesis indicating that the role of augmented feedback in learning is to guide performance to be correct during practice; however if provided too frequently, it can cause thelearner to develop a dependency "crutch" on its availability and therefore to perform poorly when it is not available. 4 Techniques that Reduce Augmented Feedback Frequency - Answer-1. Fading 2. Performance Bandwidth Technique 3. Learner Requested Feedback 4. Summary Technique
