motor learning chapters 6 and 7 2016

Fitts law tells us all of the following except

movement time decreases as movement amplitude increases

what is the ability to exert the entire body for a prolonged period of time

stamina

the differences in peoples performance that are caused by differences in stable and enduring abilities are

individual differences

is the types of accuracy required of rapid movements in which accuracy of the movement time is important to the performance

temporal accuracy

the spread, or variability, of a persons movement and points about their own mean position for repeated attempts of rapid aiming task is

effective target width

what describes proficiencies that can be modified by practice an are essentially countless number

skills

effective target width is a measure of

accuracy

what is the type of accuracy required of rapid movements in which accuracy of the movement time is important to the performance

temporal accuracy

the difference in peoples performance that are caused by differences in stable and enduring abilities ar

individual diferences

all of the following are important distinctions of abilities except

develop with practice

what describes proficiencies that can be modified by practice and are essentially countless in number

skills

the method of measuring the strength of a relationship between peoples performance scores on two tasks is

correlation

what ability allows for repeated and continuous movement of support of the weight of the body

dynamic strength

standing on one led with eyes closed requires which ability

gross body equilibrium

the ability to make one precise arm and hand positioning movements where strength and speed are not required

arm and hand steadiness

selecting someone for a high performance team because he or she performs well as a novice is problematic because

the relative import ants of various underlying abilities can change as a learner progresses from beginner to expert

an Inverted U relationship exist between
- and force requirements

speed

when a person attempts to produce the same force on the repeated trials _ is through to be caused by relatively noisy processes that convert central nervous system impulses into activation of muscle motor units

variability

exceptions to the speed of the accuracy trade off extremely rapid and forceful movements

true

even with extensive experience, a person lacking the fundamental abilities required for a particular task will never achieve high levels of performance

true

obese people are classified as which body type

endomorph

all of these are abilities except

motivation

sports teams use scouts with assumptions that the scout is able to identify athletes who possess high levels of abilities required for future performance success

true

people tend to repeat activities in which they are successful

true

which of these are individual differences

attitudes, body type, maturation, learning styles
