Lecture 2 Feedback

Question 1

what is the difference between inherent and augmented feedback?

Answer 1

Inherent:

Augmented:

Question 2

Inherent Feedback

Answer 2

• comes from within –> the senses
• can see that the ball didn’t make it into the net
• can feel that the boat isn’t set properly
• proprioception
• information provided as the movement is carried out is usually sufficient to tell whether the outcome will be successful or not

Question 3

Augmented Feedback

Answer 3

• comes from an outside source
• a coach providing verbal feedback
• engine light on a car

Table 12.1 Dimensions of Augmented Feedback

Concurrent: presented during the movement
Terminal: presented after the movement
Immediate: presented immediately after the relevant action
Delayed: delayed in time after the relevant action
Verbal: presented in a form that is spoken or capable of being spoken
Nonverbal: presented in a form that is not capable of being spoken
Accumulated: feedback that represents an accumulation of past performance
Distinct: feedback that represents each performance separately
KR: verbalized postmovement information about the outcome of the movement in the environment
KP: verbalized postmovement information about the nature of the movement pattern

Question 4

what is the difference between Knowledge of Performance and Knowledge of Results?

Answer 4

• KP is the ability to know how well you have performed a certain skill (run-up to hit a volleyball performed correctly)
• KR is knowing whether the result of that skill was successful or not (ball went over the net and stayed withing court boundaries)

Question 5

Knowledge of Performance

Answer 5

(KP)

• concerns the movement pattern that the learner has made
• more related to feedback that instructors give –> elbow was bent
• can refer to processes in the body that the subject is generally unaware of –> blood pressure

Question 6

Knowledge of Results

Answer 6

(KR)

• verbalizable terminal feedback about the outcome of the movement in terms of the environmental goal
• can be highly specific or general
• NOT feedback about the movement itself –> i.e. ‘your elbow was bent”

Question 7

What is the evidence that suggests video feedback enhances performance?

Answer 7

• needs correctional cues
• does not increase performance with just the video
• find the fricking video/article thing that told you this tho

Question 8

Schmidt and Winstein feedback frequency paper?

Answer 8

• less is more
• too much feedback can overwhelm the performer with too much to remember so it’s best to give small amounts at a time
• “learn to shut up”
• depends on the type of feedback –> negative/positive, amount of detail, visual/auditory/etc.
