KIN 230 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Motor System
Document Summary
Answer with respect to the findings of the study conducted by hird and colleagues (1991) displayed in figure 11. 7 in the textbook. Mental practice: the performance of the task is mentally rehearsed, often using imagery and techniques in the absence of physical practice. More effective than no practice, but less effective than physical practice: (a) list the 3 tenets of jeannerod"s (2001) definition of the term. If augmented kr is counterintuitive to our own inherent feedback, will the error information provided by the kr be ignored? (this concept is discussed on p. 408-409 of the textbook). The consequence of his erroneuous feedback is a motor behavior whereby the subjects perform the task with a constant error of up to -100ms. These effects are relatively long lasting, with a large negative ces occurring after one week in a no-kr retention test.
