    Study Notes

    Chapter 15: Augmented Feedback

    • Learning Objectives:
      • Distinguish task-intrinsic feedback from augmented feedback in motor skill performance.
      • Define knowledge of results (KR) and knowledge of performance (KP) with examples.
      • Describe skill learning situations where augmented feedback influences or doesn't influence learning.
      • Compare and contrast quantitative and qualitative augmented feedback.
      • Detail situations where various augmented feedback types (e.g., video replay, movement kinematics, biofeedback) effectively aid skill learning.
      • Identify when concurrent augmented feedback is beneficial or detrimental to skill learning.
      • Describe the two time intervals associated with terminal augmented feedback and how their lengths and activity during each affect skill acquisition.
      • Explain methods to reduce learner dependence on augmented feedback.

    Introduction

    • Recall initial experiences with new physical activities and consider:

      • Success levels in the first attempts.
      • Use of questions/instructor feedback during practice.
      • Value of instructor feedback in time and energy savings.
    • Practitioners play a critical role providing augmented feedback to aid skill acquisition.

    • Task-intrinsic feedback:

      • Sensory information naturally available during skill performance.
    • Augmented feedback:

      • Performance-related information added to task-intrinsic feedback.
      • Typically from an external source.

    Types of Augmented Feedback

    • Knowledge of Results (KR):

      • Externally provided information about the outcome of a skill attempt.
      • Helps distinguish task-intrinsic and augmented feedback effects on learning.
    • Knowledge of Performance (KP):

      • Information about movement characteristics leading to a performance outcome.
      • Can be given verbally or nonverbally.

    A Closer Look: Basing Verbal KP on a Skill Analysis

    • Example experiment with twelve-year-old soccer players practicing throw-ins.
      • Throw-ins aimed at a target 75% of the participant's maximum throwing distance.
      • Feedback provided on one of eight technique aspects (form).
        • Detailed skill analysis used to identify crucial aspects for form cues.

    Roles of Augmented Feedback in Skill Acquisition

    • Facilitates skill achievement:

      • Helps achieve action goals more quickly or easily.
    • Motivates learning:

      • Keeps the learner focused on achieving the goal.
      • Allows for goal adjustments or activity cessation.

    How Essential Is Augmented Feedback for Skill Learning?

    • Augmented feedback can be essential, unnecessary, enhance, or hinder skill acquisition, depending on specific situations.

    • Further details in textbook needed.

    KP must be Meaningful to the Learner

    • Key consideration for useful KP feedback.
    • Information about errors versus correct aspects of performance comparison.
    • Distinguishing between KR and KP.
    • Qualitative versus quantitative information comparison.
    • Augmented feedback based on error size.
    • Erroneous augmented feedback.

    Types of KP

    • Verbal KP:

      • Practitioner performs skill analysis, determines feedback content.
      • Can be descriptive (describes error) or prescriptive (describes error and correction).
    • Manual guidance:

      • Video replay (Figure 15.4).
      • Movement kinetics/kinematics (Figure 15.5).
    • Biofeedback:

      • Provides information about physiological processes through instrumentation.
    • Three important questions:
      • When should feedback be given (during or after performance)?
      • How soon after performance?
      • How frequently during practice sessions?

    Concurrent Augmented Feedback

    • Augmented feedback provided during skill performance.
      • Can negatively affect learning.
      • Can enhance learning.
    • Feedback variations help reduce dependence on feedback.

    Terminal Augmented Feedback

    • Feedback provided after the skill performance has finished.
      • Two distinct time intervals (KR-delay and post-KR).
      • Need a minimum length for each interval.
        • Activity during these periods can hinder, aid, or have minimal effect.

    Frequency of Presenting Augmented Feedback

    • Traditional view:

      • Augmented feedback necessary for all trials (100% frequency).
    • Contemporary view:

      • Recent research suggests reducing frequency.

    Theoretical Basis for Current View

    • Guidance hypothesis:
      • Consistent augmented feedback leads to learning dependence and poorer performance once feedback is removed.

    Techniques that Reduce Frequency of Augmented Feedback

    • Ways to reduce feedback dependence:
      • Interrupting critical cognitive or problem-solving activities for practice.
      • Interfering with task-intrinsic feedback interpretation.
      • Using performance-oriented feedback restrictions in bandwidths.
      • Allowing flexible feedback frequency selection by a learner.
      • Using summary and averaged augmented feedback (Figure 15.11).
