Augmented Feedback (EX. 3)

What is task-intrinsic feedback?

Sensory-perceptual information that is a natural part of performing a skill, including touch, proprioception, and vision.

What is augmented feedback?

Feedback that supplements sensory feedback and comes from an external source to the performer (extrinsic feedback).

What does Knowledge of Results (KR) refer to?

Externally presented information about the outcome of performing a skill, indicating whether the performance goal was achieved.

What is Knowledge of Performance (KP)?

Information about the movement characteristics that led to the performance outcome.

What are the two roles of augmented feedback in skill learning?

To facilitate achievement of the action goal of the skill and to motivate the learner to strive toward a goal.

When is augmented feedback needed?

When critical sensory feedback is unavailable, when a person lacks sensory pathways due to injury, or when the person cannot use available feedback due to inexperience.

When is augmented feedback not needed?

When a motor skill provides sufficient task-intrinsic feedback or when a detectable external referent is available.

How can augmented feedback hinder skill learning?

When a beginner becomes dependent on feedback that will not be available in a test situation.

What is erroneous feedback?

False or fake feedback.

What is current feedback?

Feedback given while a person performs a skill; effective when task-intrinsic feedback is complex to use.

What is terminal feedback?

Feedback provided at the end of a practice attempt.

How is KR beneficial for skill learning?

By confirming assessments, aiding outcome determination, providing motivation, fostering discovery learning, and ensuring an external focus.

What are the benefits of KP in skill learning?

Ensures specific movement characteristics are met, improves coordination components, aims for specific kinematics, and works effectively when KR is redundant.

What is quantitative augmented feedback?

Feedback that includes a numerical value related to the magnitude of a performance characteristic.

What is qualitative augmented feedback?

Descriptive feedback indicating the quality of performance, especially valuable in early learning stages.

What do performance bandwidths mean?

A feedback technique where feedback is given only when performance is not acceptable.

What is descriptive KP?

Feedback that simply describes the error the performer made.

What is prescriptive KP?

Feedback that identifies an error and suggests how to correct it.

What is biofeedback?

An augmented form of task-intrinsic feedback related to physiological processes like heart rate and muscle activity.

What is the KR delay interval?

The time between the completion of a movement and the presentation of augmented feedback.

What is the post KR interval?

The time between the presentation of augmented feedback and the start of the next trial.

What is the guidance hypothesis?

The idea that frequent augmented feedback will guide learners to perform the movement correctly.

What is summary augmented feedback?

Feedback that lists performance-related information after a set number of practice trials.
