Flashcards do conjunto (10)
- 1Motor ProgramingMotor program say the brain sends signal every time to move arm and then the arm moves
- 2Dynamical SystemsDynamical system says the arm needs to move and therefore it unfolds without the brain having to send a signal every time
- 3Skills involve achieving some well-defined environmental goal in these ways1. Maximizing the certainty of goal achievement
2. Minimizing the physical and mental energy costs of performance
3. Minimizing the time used - 4Three elements are critical to almost any skill1. Perceiving the relevant environmental features
2. Deciding what to do and where and when to do it to achieve the goal
3. Producing organized muscular activity to generate movements that achieve the goal - 5Discrete SkillsUsually have an easily defined beginning and end, often with a very brief duration of movement (e.g. throwing a ball, firing a rifle, or turning on a light switch)
- 6Serial SkillsA serial skill is a group of discrete skills strung together to make up a new, more complicated skilled action (e.g., shifting gears in a car).
The word serial implies that the order of elements is usually critical for successful performance - 7Continuous SkillsContinuous skills have arbitrary beginning and end points, the behavior flowing for minutes or hours (e.g. swimming and knitting)
- 8Constant Error (CE)Average all the scores for each subject
Interpreted as an overall tendency to underthrow or overthrow the target - 9Absolute Error (AE)Considered the absolute value (e.g., with the sign ignored or removed) of the error on each trial, and take the average of those error scores for the various trials
Interpreted as one person or group being more off target than another - 10Variable ErrorA measure of the subject's inconsistency
