Models of information processing were prevalent from the 1950’s - 1980’s

Represented a shift in focus from product to process. Subjects’ experience and activities engaged in became important components in the analysis of tasks.

Cognitive models were used to explain motor behavior.

What is working memory?

Working memory is a way of describing short-term memory. The working memory perspective views the short-term memory like a workbench where input is received, past experiences are evaluated, and responses are shaped.

Some patterns, ideas, and information are received from STM and stored in some form for long term use.

Information is reshaped and transferred for performance.

Knowledge of Performance Feedback

KP is feedback about the movement form. It is related to the process of movement, e.g., proprioception (kinesthesis) or verbal information from a coach, teacher, ergonomist, or trainer. KP can be provided from internal or external sources. Gentile (2000) and Allard and Burnett (1985) advocated for providing KP in closed skills without intertrial variability.

Page 12: Processing of Information and Performance of Experts.

Knowledge of Results Feedback

KR is feedback about the goal (result) of movement, e.g., seeing a ball go through the basket, hearing an administrator’s excitement at the completion of a task. KR can be provided through internal or external sources. Gentile (2000) and Allard and Burnett (1985) suggested KR is appropriate for open and closed skills that occur in variable environments.
