Research Consortium
Motor Behavior: Recent Research in Motor Behavior: Theory and Practice
This symposium will focus on four practice manipulations that have been shown to have an impact on the performance and learning of motor skills under laboratory conditions. Our goal, however, will be not only to review the research finding and discuss the theoretical implications of the research, but to suggest how these finding may be translated from laboratory settings to real-world settings, such as sports training. Specifically, we will discuss the implications of recent findings in the areas of internal and external attentional focus, knowledge of results and other forms of augmented feedback, observation and modeling, and auditory models.
