Document Summary
Learning outcomes - lecture 12: define and provide examples of constraints-led approach, constraints (boundaries, obstacles) are present and you need to overcome them, ex. Stroke patient rehab: constraining the dominant hand, forcing the patient to use the affected hand to complete the task given, describe how a constraints-led approach may improve performance. It strengthens perception-action coupling: define mental imagery and explain how imagery may improve performance. Imagery is the process of mentally rehearsing a specific task that activates similar areas of the brain that the actual task would activate. Imagery may improve performance by strengthening and building neural networks. Subjective workload assessment tool: physiological effects, have to be a significant task to see changes, blink rate goes down initially but increases again when adjusted to task. Learning outcomes - lecture 14: define and provide examples of components of perceived risk, including: objective risk, subjective risk, unrealistic optimism, objective risk, the facts, the statistics about certain behaviour.
