Q

what is decision making

A

the process where the performer, uses a combination of recognition, perception and memory processes to select an appropriate response to the demands of the situation

Q

what is feedback

A

feedback occurs because the player, perceives the outcome of his or her response and this in turn becomes part of the input for the basis of further decision making

11
Q

what is selective attention

A

this is the process of sorting out relevant bits of information from the many which are received.

Q

state 7 way’s to develop selective attention

A
  • lots of relevant practice
  • increase the intensity of the stimulus
  • use verbal or kinaesthetic cues to focus on important information
  • use visualization or mental rehearsal techniques without movement
  • watch performers video replays to refine technique
  • observe and copy the behaviour of a player who plays in the same position as the subject

Q

what are 3 benefits to selective attention

A
  • reduces performers potential memory overload
  • helps regulate performers arousal and anxiety levels
  • improves performers reaction time

15
Q

how long for and how much information can the short term sensory store hold

A

around 5-9 pieces of information and it can only hold them for 20-30

Q

what is the Baddeley and Hitch model

A

a basic version of working memory, which can be defined as a temporary storage system under attentional control that underpins our capacity for complex thought. this therefore replaces the short term memory in the memory system theory systems, so far dealt with

Q

know the Baddeley and Hitching model

A

.

18
Q

what does the central executive system do

A

it allocates memories to the phonological and visuospatial sketch pad

19
Q

what is visuospatial sketchpad

A

the VSSP system receives and sorts out visual information ready for processing in the long term memory

20
Q

what is the phonological loop

A
  • an articulatory loop - which voices information, that you are rehearsing
  • a primary acoustic store - which just hold onto the memory of sounds
21
Q

what is the episodic buffer

A

it works between and the phonological loop and VSSP and brings elements of information together into patterns or stories into the long term memory. it is a temporary storage system that is able to combine information from the loop, the sketchpad, long term memory or indeed from perceptual input, into a coherent episode

22
Q

what is Whittlings information processing model

A
23
Q

what is the perceptual mechanism

A

the part of the brain which perceives the surroundings and gives them meaning

24
Q

what is the translatory mechanism

A

consist of the part of the brain which makes decisions and sorts out and processes the few relevant bits of information from the many inputs from the surroundings

25
Q

what is the effector mechanism

A

the part of the brain which carries out the decisions and sends messages to the limbs and parts of the body via the nervous system

26
Q

what does output involve (Whiting’s model)

A

it involves the effector mechanism and the muscular system. The nerves send messages to the muscles which move in order for the ball to be caught

27
Q

what is feedback data

A

the information which is used during and after an action or movement which enables a performer to adjust or change performance according to this new information

28
Q

what is reaction time

A

reaction time is the time between the onset of a stimulus and the start of the response.

29
Q

what is response time

A

response time is the time it takes to process information and then to make a response. response time = reaction time + movement time

30
Q

what is movement time

A

movement time, is the time it takes to complete the onset of a movement

31
Q

what is the definition of onset

A

the length of time it takes of something to start to work.

32
Q

state 5 factors that may affect reaction time

A
  • age
  • gender
  • height
  • stimulus intensity
  • arousal levels
33
Q

what is anticipation

A

the ability to predict future events from early signals or past events

34
Q

what is temporal anticipation

A

is pre-judging when the future event will occur

35
Q

what is spatial anticipation

A

is pre - judging where and what the future event will be

36
Q

what is the phycological refractory period

A

is about what happens when following an initial stimulus (may cause a reaction) there is a presentation of a second stimulus
the PRP is the time lag that occurs in responding to the second of the two stimuli which occur close together, because a response to the first stimulus is still being processed

37
Q

state 3 ways of improving reaction time

A
  • detecting the cues (when you may need to start the response time)
  • decision making
  • controlling anxiety
38
Q

Hick’s law

A

Reaction time increases as the number of choices increases

39
Q

what is the single channel hypothesis

A

The Single Channel Hypothesis states that once a stimulus has been recognised and is in the process of being dealt with any secondary stimuli must wait until the first has been dealt with before it can be processed. We can only process one piece of information at a time.

40
Q

what is inter - psychological learning

A

learning, from others externally

41
Q

what is Intra - psychological learning

A

Learning from within after gaining external knowledge from others

42
Q

what is the zone of proximal development

A

the next stage of learning based on the performers needs, expectations and current level of performance
