Why use motor behavior? - (answer)To understand the process of skill development, control, and
change over time
Three subdisciplines of motor behavior - (answer)motor learning, motor control, motor development
Motor Movements Beyond Sport - (answer)•Babies learning to use a fork and spoon
•Dentists learning to control drill while looking in a mirror
•Surgeons controlling a scalpel; microsurgeons using laser
•Children learning to ride a bicycle or to roller skate
•Teenagers learning to drive

Research methods for motor behavior - (answer)Measuring Movements
(I.E. Reaction Time, Successful trials/ # attempts, Quantification of movement kinematics )
Continuous Task Characteristics Ex. - (answer)Walking running, swimming (same thing all the way
throughout the movement)
Discrete Task Characteristics Ex. - (answer)The begging and end are different
(throwing a ball, your arms at the back and than goes to the front)

Goals of Motor Behavior - (answer)To understand how motor skills are LEARNED, CONTROLLED, and
CHANGE ACROSS THE LIFE SPAN
Learning is the goal of? - (answer)Practice
Learning is determined by ... and ... - (answer)Retention and transfer
Retention is - (answer)When a Skill can effectively be performed after a period of time with no practice
Transfer is - (answer)Having skills improve performance of another skil
What do expert performers do during practice and competition? How is it different from novice? -
(answer)Skill, Decision-making, game performance
Goal of Motor Behavior? - (answer)Explain response selection and response execution (i.e. how the
target skill is selected and how it is performed)
Repetition is key but ... - (answer)not sufficient in and of itself
Before Practice Phasic - (answer)Goal Setting, instructions, modeling, and mental practice
During Practice Phasic - (answer)Scheduling practice and Context of practice
Feedback is - (answer)integral part of practice
Feedback is also - (answer)Intrinsic or Extrinsic
Intrinsic is - (answer)Internal feedback
