HKIN 215 Lecture Notes - Lecture 2: Hypotenuse, Mental Chronometry, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
Document Summary
Performance outcome measures: rt, mt, response time, types of rt situations, fractionating rt, error measures: ae, ce, ve, re. Performance production measures: kinematics: displacement, velocity, acceleration, brain activity: eeg, pet, fmri, meg, tms. Objectives: describe differences between performance outcome measures and perfor- mance production measures, define rt, mt, and response time, describe how emg can be used to fractionate rt. Identify the difference between the three types of rt situations: describe the kinematic measures of motion. Identify and describe the different ways to measure brain activity. Performance measurement is essential for: performance assessment and evaluation, motor learning and control research. How do we measure motor performance: performance outcome measures: indicates the outcome (results) of perform- ing a motor skill, performance production measures: indicates something about the quality and characteristics of movement production. + mt); information processing and completion of movement.
