question
4 Stages of Learning to Use Video Feedback (VFB)
answer
1) Getting over focusing on irrelevant VFB (such as appearance) 2) Learning to recognize specific correct and incorrect aspects of the swing. 3) Learning to be more analytical regarding cause and effect (swing and ball flight) 4) Determining correction for each swing flaw.
question
Kinematic KP
answer
Branch biomechanics that describes the motion of the body or golfer's swing.
question
Effects of Giving Only Correction KR & KP
answer
-Less information to process w/out error KR & KP -Faster rate of performance improvement -Focus only on what to do (positive) -Avoid what was done wrong (negative)
question
Effects of Giving Only Correction/Non-Error KR & KP
answer
-Leads to less extensive understanding of the error-correction (cause & effect) process -Limited ability of self correct in the future -Results in greater dependency in the teacher -Faster learning process.
question
Effects of Giving Error & Correction KR & KP
answer
-More info to process -Focus on what was done wrong (negative) & what to do (positive) -More extensively engaged in learning the error-correction (cause/effect) process -Slower rate of performance improvement -Leads to more extensive understanding of the error-correction process -Ability to self-correct in future -Results in less dependence on the teacher
question
Quantitative KR & KP
answer
Consists of numbers that measure performance
question
Qualitative KR & KP
answer
-Consists of non-numerical information about performance -Reasons your body moves (no order)- reaction/reflex, what your mind tells you to do, anticipation.
question
Concurrent Augmented Feedback
answer
-Information about the swing that is given during the swing. -The movements being made to produce the swing or the movement of the club, shaft, or club head during the swing.
question
Terminal Augmented Feedback
answer
-Information about the swing or shot outcome that is given after the swing. -This is terminal KP of the information is about he performance of the swing and terminal KR if the information is about he shot outcome. -KR and KP should be delayed, but no later than 30 seconds after the shot.
question
Relative Frequency Schedule Formula
answer
-(Number of KR/KP given/number of swings)*100
question
Fading Frequency Schedule
answer
-Reduced relative frequencies of KR/KP can facilitate motor skill learning more than when KR/KP is given 100% of the time.

answer
-18+ -Focus on high performance, year-round training, plan for peaking.
question
Speed Windows
answer
-Knowing when a student is going to have a growth spurt. -Occurs in the FUNdamental phase and the Training to Train phase, when growth has slowed and nerves and muscles are creating the framework for the student's future development.
question
5 S's
answer
-Stamina, skill, and suppleness should be emphasized in developmental training while the child is growing rapidly. -Speed and strength should be emphasized when a leveling of growth occurs.
question
Does learning really benefit more when feedback is given more frequently?
answer
-Research suggests that it is better to give KR or KP less frequently.
question
Absolute Frequency Schedule
answer
-Simply reduces the number of times KR or KP is given. -Give KR or KP after every other swing or every third swing.
question
Relative Frequency Schedule
answer
-Highest in early learning stages and gradually decreases as learning progresses. -The number of times KR or KP is given, divided by the total number of swings multiplied by 100.
question
Bandwidth Schedule
answer
-KR or KP is given only when the size of the error is large enough to fall outside the arbitrary bandwidth or range of tolerance. -No KR or KP is given when the size of the error falls within the bandwidth.
question
Self-Regulated Schedule
answer
-KR or KP is given only when the student asks for it. -Gives the student more control over the learning process.
question
When is the best time to make the next swing?
answer
-After the feedback has been processed.
question
Individual Lessons
answer
-Most common instructional format in golf. -Allows instructor to go one-on-one with a student and to adhere to their specific needs more.
question
Group lessons
answer
-Allow students to use one another as a resource for learning. -Creates a community of learning among group members that a single instructor cannot create.
