P3.6 Applying Motor Learning Feedback

Vocabulary flashcards covering types, timing, categories, and scheduling of feedback in motor learning.

Intrinsic Feedback

Feedback presented to an individual through various sensory systems as a result of the normal production of movement, originating from within the person rather than an external source.

Sensory Feedback

Internal sensory information where visual feedback indicates movement accuracy, and somatosensory feedback indicates how limbs are positioned and how much force is used.

Extrinsic Feedback

Information provided from an outside source, such as a therapist, that supplements an individual's intrinsic feedback.

Concurrent Feedback

Extrinsic feedback delivered live during the performance of a task.

Terminal Feedback

Extrinsic feedback delivered at the end of a task.

Knowledge of Results (KR)

Extrinsic feedback concerning the outcome of a movement in relation to the specified movement goal.

Knowledge of Performance (KP)

Extrinsic feedback providing information about the specific movement path used to achieve the goal.

Fading Schedule

A feedback schedule where more feedback is given early and is gradually faded out over time, resulting in no performance difference during acquisition but better scores in delayed retention.

Feedback on Every Trial

Feedback delivered after every single trial, which results in worse delayed retention because the learner becomes dependent on feedback and does not rely on themselves for error correction.

Summary Feedback

Feedback provided after a series of trials, leading to better delayed retention performance compared to receiving feedback on every single trial.
