Module 4 - Theories and principles motor control
Across
- 5. action at the knee which allows the centre of mass to continue horizontally during period of double support in walking
- 6. first stage of reaction time
- 8. Fitts law describes a ----------- accuracy trade-off
- 10. strategy used to move information from short-term to long-term memory
- 14. which stage of information-processing model is affected by the Stroop effect
- 16. loop control system where movements are structured in advance
- 17. increasing complexity of the movement response will increase the reaction time due to an increase in which stage
- 18. duration of short-term sensory store in seconds
- 19. control system that has comparator
- 20. swing phase of the movement expected to be consistent in expert performers when throwing or kicking or striking
- 22. duration of the short-term memory in seconds
- 23. the ability to recall only the first and last words in a list is referred to as a -------------- positioning effect
- 24. attentional limitation that prevents novices doing multiple tasks at the same time
- 26. factor that affects the allocation policy of attention
Down
- 1. three stage model where information from the environment is processed by a series of actions in the central nervous system
- 2. measurement of a single joint angle used to describe variability in a discrete task such as basketball free-throw
- 3. type of activity under closed-loop control
- 4. type of timing invariance that is expected within the generalised motor program of expert performers
- 7. human walking gait is described as an
- 9. an invariant feature of a generalised motor program ------------- of muscles
- 11. second stage of the executive function
- 12. running is modelled as a ----------------
- 13. required to extend the leg and generate the push off phase in walking
- 15. theory that suggested we were controlled by stimulus response relationship
- 19. a generalised motor program represents a -------------- of actions
- 21. time from stimulus presentation to response
- 25. Hicks law states that reaction time will increase at a constant amount with a --------------- of the number of stimuli
