KINE 2202 Final Exam Study Guide with Complete
Solutions
task organization - Correct Answer degree to which the subcomponents of the skill are
interdependent; how much of each part of a performance depends on another part; low v. high
low task organization - Correct Answer each part of the task doesn't depend too much on another
part
high task organization - Correct Answer each part of the task does depend on the other parts
task complexity & organization of tying a figure 8 knot - Correct Answer high task complexity, low
task organization
task complexity & organization of a bicep curl - Correct Answer low task complexity, low task
organization
task complexity & organization of a jump serve in volleyball - Correct Answer high task complexity,
high task organization
task complexity & organization of putting a golf ball - Correct Answer low task complexity, high task
organization
whole practice - Correct Answer practice the entire task without concentrating on specific parts
part practice - Correct Answer practice separate parts of the skill and then put them together to form
the whole skill; segmentation, fractionization, simplification
What type of skills do whole practices work for? - Correct Answer highly organized, not very complex
skills
What type of skills do part practices work for? - Correct Answer highly complex, not very organized
skills
, segmentation - Correct Answer skill is separated into parts according to spatial or temporal elements:
part-whole method, progressive-part method, or repetitive-part method; backward v. forward
chaining
part-whole method - Correct Answer learners practice each part separately until they demonstrate a
certain level of proficiency, & then they combine the parts & practice the skill in its entirety
progressive-part method - Correct Answer learner begins by practicing two of the parts separately,
then combines them & practices them together; then a third part is introduced & practiced & is then
combined with the other two parts
repetitive-part method - Correct Answer rather than practicing a part independently, it is added on
to previous parts & is practiced together
forward chaining - Correct Answer parts are presented & practiced in a sequence progressing from
the first to the final part of the skill
backward chaining - Correct Answer parts are presented & practiced in a sequence that progresses
from the final part to the first part
fractionization - Correct Answer skill components normally performed simultaneously are partitioned
and practiced independently (ex. playing keyboard, drumming); for rhythmic skills that require
bimanual coordination, fractionization has poor transfer to the whole skill
simplification - Correct Answer reduces the level of difficulty of the task or some aspect of the task;
modify the equipment, reduce the coordination requirements, change the complexity of the
environment,use skill-building activities and lead-up games, sequence from simple to complex
objective goals - Correct Answer goals that are measurable in a specific and precise way; outcome,
performance, and process goals
outcome goals - Correct Answer objectives are based on outcome (ex. winning, beating someone)
performance goals - Correct Answer objectives are based on self-comparison (ex. achieving a certain
time, personal best)
