Study Notes
Assisted vs. Unassisted Movements
- Assisted movements produce different feedback than unassisted movements.
- Learners are less attentive when passively guided through a movement.
- Manual guidance prevents learners from detecting and correcting their own errors.
Frequency of Manual Guidance
- Frequent manual guidance improves performance but negatively impacts retention.
- Studies show harmful long-term effects on skill maintenance. (Sidaway et al., 2008; Winstein, Pohl, & Lewthwaite, 1994; Wulf et al., 1998)
When Manual Guidance is Beneficial
- Manual guidance can be beneficial in certain situations:
- Injury prevention
- Developing a basic understanding of a skill
- Ensuring safety
- Unassisted practice is preferable whenever possible.
