Book Bandwidth Feedback Effects on Retained Movements in Young and Old Adults

Download or read book Bandwidth Feedback Effects on Retained Movements in Young and Old Adults written by Surbhi Pahuja and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Feedback representing a performer's success for a given response has long been considered a critical factor in motor learning. Numerous studies of learning from augmented feedback have produced ambiguous guidelines for frequency design-some have recommended minimal feedback, whereas others have advocated more extensive feedback. Due to conflicting opinions regarding the frequency of Knowledge of Results, this study aimed to identify how young and old adults retain motor skills when two different frequency schedules of augmented feedback, everytrial and bandwidth are provided in acquisition. The participants performed a ballistic lever movement pattern involving four different target locations in a 1-day retention test. Behavioral outcomes and kinematic movement patterns were analyzed from two groups, young adults (20-30 years) and old adults (above 71 years) from a previously completed experiment. Results revealed that in both the age groups, bandwidth feedback promoted motor learning as compared to every-trial feedback. Further, bandwidth feedback promoted slower movements with longer durations as compared to an every-trial feedback schedule. Additionally, no significant interaction of age with any of the feedback conditions was found, suggesting that the effects of augmented feedback on motor learning are similar in young and old adults.

Download or read book Motor Behavior written by Herbert Heuer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years there has been steadily increasing interest in motor behavior and a growing awareness that a person not only has to know what to do in a particular situation, but also how to do it. The question of how actions are performed is of central concern in the area of motor control. This volume provides an advanced-level treatment of some of the main issues. Experiments concerned with basic processes of motor control typ ically examine very simple movements. At first glance these tasks appear to be far removed from real-world tasks, but it should be kept in mind that they are not studied for their own sake. One of the main reasons for using them is the well-recognized, but sometimes questioned, scientific principle that basic laws may be discovered more easily in simple situations than iIi complex situations. Another reason is that the simple tasks studied constitute building blocks of more complex tasks. For example, some complex skills can be consid ered as consisting of sequences of aimed movements, although, as no one would doubt, knowing everything about these individual movements does not mean knowing everything about, for example, typing. The first two chapters of the present volume focus on behavioral and physiological studies of programming and preparation of move ments. In the first chapter D. Rosenbaum introduces the concept of a motor program that is set up in advance of the overt movement.

This book was released on 2006-12 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book approaches research from a perspective different from that taken in other educational research textbooks. The goal is to show educators that the application of research principles can make them more effective in their job of promoting learning. The basic point is that we do not have to stop teaching to do research; research is something we can do while teaching and if we do good research, we will do better teaching. This book includes most of the topics treated in traditional educational research books, but in a different order and with a different emphasis. The important content cons.
