Book Equal Workload Demands May Hinder the Ability of Focus of Attention to Impact Motor Learning

Download or read book Equal Workload Demands May Hinder the Ability of Focus of Attention to Impact Motor Learning written by Lauren V. Bennett and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Two bodies of literature have addressed the question of how attentional focus relates to learning and performance of a motor task. The literature on direction of attention has found that focusing on the effects of one's movement, an external focus, rather than on one's bodily movements, an internal focus, leads to more effective and efficient movements and subsequently better performance on a variety of sport-related motor skills. The literature on the relevance of attention has determined that novices perform well when focused on aspects of the skill execution itself, but experience performance decrements when asked to focus on something extraneous. Experts show the opposite tendency in that they perform more poorly when focused on the skill execution than on a distractor. Both of these areas of research are well-established in their own right, but they are not purely independent because these different styles of focus overlap. A novice golfer who focuses on the swing of his arms while putting is predicted to do more poorly due to an internal focus, but the other body of literature predicts success due to a skill-relevant focus. Few have attempted to research the effects of both dimensions of focus simultaneously. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to identify whether the interaction of external and skill-focused attention could be more beneficial to skill acquisition and retention than either one separately. Participants learned to throw darts while receiving one type of attentional focus instruction: (1) internal, skill-relevant; (2) external, skill-relevant; (3) internal, extraneous; (4) external, extraneous. They returned 48 hours later to perform retention trials without any attentional instructions. Workload was assessed via a self-report survey for participants in each condition to assess whether any differences in subjective difficulty exist between the groups. Although all participants improved their throwing accuracy throughout the acquisition period, there were no performance differences seen between the conditions at acquisition or retention. There were also no differences in perceived workload between the conditions. These results are expected if workload does, in fact, mediate the effect of focus of attention on motor skill performance. With workload demands similar, there exist no differences in performance between groups following different focus instructions. Further, the only reliable predictor of performance on the task was the participant's self-rating of expertise reported prior to participation. Future between-subjects research designs in motor learning should aim to balance participants across groups using self-ratings of skill level. Finally, the NASA-TLX should be used to measure workload in the typical methodology used in direction of attention literature and skill-relevance of focus literature, where performance differences have been observed, in order to determine whether differences in workload demands could be partially responsible for those performance differences."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.

Book Encyclopedia of the Sciences of Learning

Download or read book Encyclopedia of the Sciences of Learning written by Norbert M. Seel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-10-05 with total page 3643 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past century, educational psychologists and researchers have posited many theories to explain how individuals learn, i.e. how they acquire, organize and deploy knowledge and skills. The 20th century can be considered the century of psychology on learning and related fields of interest (such as motivation, cognition, metacognition etc.) and it is fascinating to see the various mainstreams of learning, remembered and forgotten over the 20th century and note that basic assumptions of early theories survived several paradigm shifts of psychology and epistemology. Beyond folk psychology and its naïve theories of learning, psychological learning theories can be grouped into some basic categories, such as behaviorist learning theories, connectionist learning theories, cognitive learning theories, constructivist learning theories, and social learning theories. Learning theories are not limited to psychology and related fields of interest but rather we can find the topic of learning in various disciplines, such as philosophy and epistemology, education, information science, biology, and – as a result of the emergence of computer technologies – especially also in the field of computer sciences and artificial intelligence. As a consequence, machine learning struck a chord in the 1980s and became an important field of the learning sciences in general. As the learning sciences became more specialized and complex, the various fields of interest were widely spread and separated from each other; as a consequence, even presently, there is no comprehensive overview of the sciences of learning or the central theoretical concepts and vocabulary on which researchers rely. The Encyclopedia of the Sciences of Learning provides an up-to-date, broad and authoritative coverage of the specific terms mostly used in the sciences of learning and its related fields, including relevant areas of instruction, pedagogy, cognitive sciences, and especially machine learning and knowledge engineering. This modern compendium will be an indispensable source of information for scientists, educators, engineers, and technical staff active in all fields of learning. More specifically, the Encyclopedia provides fast access to the most relevant theoretical terms provides up-to-date, broad and authoritative coverage of the most important theories within the various fields of the learning sciences and adjacent sciences and communication technologies; supplies clear and precise explanations of the theoretical terms, cross-references to related entries and up-to-date references to important research and publications. The Encyclopedia also contains biographical entries of individuals who have substantially contributed to the sciences of learning; the entries are written by a distinguished panel of researchers in the various fields of the learning sciences.
