Document Summary

Information processing theory= theory that seeks to conceptualize how decisions are made and appropriate motor actions are executed. The hip approach is used to develop models that describe the flow of info in the human that results is a motor action. ***refer to simplified information processing model on input-> human-> output. Environmental information flows through the human to create some sort of motor output. But what"s going on inside the human? processing subsystems that exist within the human. This informa6on flow is captured by assuming that there are information. This approach allows analyses of skill components in terms of the following processes: It is important to note that this model assumes complete, independent processing in each stage before the next stage can be completed. Perceptual stage: the stage is responsible for stimulus detection and identification, sensory stage (vision, audio touch, patterns of movement detected, components of stimuli assembled to form representation of stimulus.
