Cards in this deck (10)
- 11. Stimulus Identification (3-stages of info processing)Stimulus recognised and identified
- 22. Response Selection (3-stages of information processing)Decision about what response to make
- 33. Response Programming (3-stages of information processing)Motor system organised
- 4Movement PreparationTime is needed to prepare before executing a movement
- 5Reaction Time (RT)An indication of how long it has taken between presentation of a stimulus and a response
- 6Hick's LawRT will increase logarithmically as the number of stimulus response choices increase.
- 7Psychological Refractory Period (PRP)Delay in responding to a second stimulus that is spaced closely after the first.
It occurs because a response to the first stimulus must be processed before processing a second response. - 8AnticipationComplete much of the information processing before stimulus is presented to reduce RT.
- 9Spatial AnticipationKnowing what will happen. Eg - the ball will go to the left
- 10Temporal AnticipationKnowing when an event will happen. Eg - the player serves after 3 bounces.
