Document Summary
Moment to moment basis decision making is very good: think about choking in sport. No confidence in hitting ball over water hazard, might hit the water. When learning a new motor skill body-parts are coordinated in new ways, therefore movements are abstract and of little meaningfulness: 1. Use of imagery (associative and autonomous) instead of complex verbal instruction. Movement can be rehearsed through mental imagery. Supports same cortical systems when using imagery and actually doing the movement.

Use of imagery really helps motor acquisition: 2. Provide a verbal label to the movement (e. g. release the football at. 11:30) this is a very cognitive thing, and enhances recall for them label-movement association enhances correct recall of the movement. Anytime you draw on cognitive resources, you take away their ability to make high level decisions: 3.
