Download or read book The Learning Memory and Perception of Perceptual motor Skills written by Robert B. Wilberg and published by North Holland. This book was released on 1991 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three main topics are covered in this book, namely, learning, memory, and perception. The first section consists of seven papers and is devoted entirely to the learning of motor skills. The papers summarize the current state of perceptual- motor learning in general and highlight specific topics of interest to the informed reader. The second section is divided between movement memory and perception. In recent years there has been a decline in the popularity of movement memory as a research topic. However, some recent advances in cognitive science, and parallel distributed processing in particular, may now provide the basis for a renewed interest. The topic of perception never enjoyed the popularity that motor skill learning and/or memory for movement did. However there is now a clearer understanding of the perceptual processes and invariances that affect how we perceive the world. Others, like the renewed interest in signal detection theory and quantal reaction time, serve notice that the perceptual part of perceptual motor-skills is here to stay.

Download or read book Recent insights into perceptual and motor skill learning The computational and neural processes underlying perceptual and motor skill learning written by Lior Shmuelof and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2015-03-18 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improvements in task performance following practice can occur as a result of changes in distinct cognitive and neural processes. In some cases, we can improve our performance by selecting a more successful behavior that is already part of our available repertoire. Skill learning, on the other hand, refers to a slower process that results in improving the ability to perform a behavior, i.e., it involves the acquisition of a behavior that was not available to the controller before training. Skill learning can take place both in the sensory and in the motor domains. Sensory skill acquisition in perceptual learning tasks is measured by improvements in sensory acuity through practice-induced changes in the sensitivity of relevant neural networks. Motor skill is harder to define as the term is used whenever a motor learning behavior improves along some dimension. Nevertheless, we have recently argued that as in perceptual learning, acuity is an integral component in motor skill learning. In this special topic we set out to integrate experimental and theoretical work on perceptual and motor skill learning and to stimulate a discussion regarding the similarities and differences between these two kinds of learning.

Download or read book Information Processing in Motor Control and Learning written by George E. Stelmach and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-06-28 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information Processing in Motor Control and Learning provides the theoretical ideas and experimental findings in the field of motor behavior research. The text presents a balanced combination of theory and empirical data. Chapters discuss several theoretical issues surrounding skill acquisition; motor programming; and the nature and significance of preparation, rapid movement sequences, attentional demands, and sensorimotor integration in voluntary movements. The book will be interesting to psychologists, neurophysiologists, and graduate students in related fields.

Book excerpt: "Offers a new approach to the understanding of the development of motor skills in children. It goes beyond the description of the repertoire of motor skills, so common in current literature, to analyse their causes. The book aims to bridge the gap between theoretical and applied interests to provide the teacher, psychologist and the therapist with the framework for the analysis and treatment of perceptual-motor development and dysfunction in children aged five to twelve years. The authors adopt the process-orientated approach to the study of motor behaviour, examining the underlying psychological and physiological processes that are common to many different types of everyday activities. They illustrate how process-orientated analysis leads to an understanding of the factors that determine motor behaviour, and form the basis for individual differences. The need for standardised tests to diagnose motor dysfunction is stressed and the authors critically review those tests currently available. They go on to describe the construction and implementation of their own tests for kinaesthetic sensitivity and perceptual-motor abilities, and show how the training of kinaesthetic perception abilities improves motor control"--Back cover.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the outcome of a Nato Workshop, held in France in July 1989. The workshop was organized to examine current ideas about sensory-motor organizations during human infancy and their development through early childhood. The study of sensory-motor development is experiencing a profound shift in scope, focus, methodology and theoretical foundations. Many of these changes are quite new and not yet well covered in the literature. We thought it would be useful for some of the leading researchers in this field to convene together and to compare notes, and collectively to establish future directions for the field. The reasons for a new conceptualization of sensory-motor development are no doubt numerous, but three are especially significant: 1. One concerns a shift from studying either sensory or motor processing to investigation of the relations between the two. 2. The second is connected to the new emphasis on action, and its implications for goal-directed and intentional behaviour extending over time. 3. Lastly, new theories and methodologies provide access to new tools for studying and conceptualizing the developmental process. 1.-One of the most enduring legacies of the behaviorist perspective has been a focus on the stimulus and the response to the exclusion of the relation between them (Pick, 1989). Historically, this bias translated into a research agenda in which the investigator was concerned with either perceptual or motor competence, but rarely the relation between them.
