  2. The Kahneman model of attention is an example of which type of limited-capacity theory? • A theory of attention capacity that argues against a central capacity limit is the…

  3. If you are asked to demonstrate how you tie your shoes, you would base your demonstration on knowledge stored in long-term memory in the ______ memory system. • Which term is used in the motor learning research literature when referring to an observed behavior?

  4. As a person practices a skill, an important change that occurs is the capability to…. • If a novice and highly skilled typist were required to perform a verbal secondary task while typing on a keyboard the novice’s typing performance would be….. • The general rule of thumb for predicting positive transfer between two motor skills is that the degree of positive transfer is related to the…..

  5. The primary reason to use a transfer test to assess learning is to evaluate which of the following performance characteristics associated with the learning of a motor skill? • Which method of assessing learning is used when people are required to perform a skill one week after they completed practicing that skill?

  6. According to Fitts and Posner, the learner moves through three stages when learning a motor skill. These are the cognitive, the associative, and the ________. • Gentile’s learning stages model indicates that in the second stage of learning, one goal of the learner is related specifically to closed skills. This goal is called

  7. The generally accepted view about the direction of bilateral transfer between two limbs is that it is…

  8. The process involved when people direct attention to specific regulatory features in the environment and/or to action preparation activities is known as attention ________. • The term used to describe performing a skill or component of a skill without attention capacity being required is • True of False: Attention focused on one’s own movements typically leads to better skill performance than attention focused on the intended outcome of the skill

  9. Fill In The Blank Questions • The factor in Kahneman’s model of attention that influences the available capacity is ________. • An organization process that results in increasing the size of working memory and involves combining smaller units of information to make larger ones is an activity commonly called ________.

  10. Fill In The Blank, cont. • Two important characteristics of performance changes associated with learning a motor skill are that performance shows improvement and that performance becomes increasingly more ________ as practice progresses. • We can historically trace the view that transfer occurs because of the similar characteristics of two skills to Thorndike’s ________ theory

  11. Fill In The Blank, cont. • According to Gentile’s model, the goal of diversification in the second stage of learning is specifically related to ________ motor skills. • According to Gentile, the characteristics of an object that specify the movement characteristics required for grasping it are called ________ conditions.

  12. Fill In The Blank, cont. • Two important functions of working memory are to serve as a: (1) storage location for information just presented; (2) workspace to integrate information you just received with information retrieved from ________. • Performance of a new experience that is hindered by experience with a previous skill is an example of ________ transfer.

  13. Fill In The Blank, cont. • When we remember characteristics of a performance context that we were not instructed to remember, we demonstrate the influence of memory. • According to Gentile, an important goal for the learner during the first stage of learning is to acquire a ________ pattern that will allow the person some degree of success at achieving the action goal of the skill.

  14. Fill In The Blank, cont. • According to the Fitts and Posner model, the stage of learning during which the learner makes a large number of errors and tries to answer a lot of “how to” questions is the ________ stage.

  15. Key Terms • Feature integration theory • Visual search • Working memory • Long term memory • Definition of learning • The 4 different performance curves • Encoding specificity principle

  16. Key Terms, cont. • Meaningful labels or verbal cues. • Retention test • Transfer test • Regulatory and nonregulatory • Transfer-appropriate-processing-theory • Negative transfer • Stages of learning • Bilateral transfer
