The Perception & Action Podcast - Sports Science & Psychology Talk

Why is movement variability beneficial for skill acquisition and execution? What distinguishes “good” from “bad” variability in movement?  How do different coaching/instructional methods (e.g. ordering practice conditions, cueing, differential learning, and manipulating constraints) compare in terms of their ability to encourage functional variability? When should we be trying to maximize variability?   Articles: Creative Motor Actions as Emerging from Movement Variability The Role of Variability in Motor Learning Motor variability is not noise, but grist for the learning mill Individual Movement Variability Magnitudes Are Explained by Cortical Neural Variability Temporal structure of motor variability is dynamically regulated and predicts motor learning ability.   Training video: https://twitter.com/Senaptec/status/966536834015813638   More information: http://perceptionaction.com/ My Research Gate Page (pdfs of my articles) My ASU Web page Podcast Facebook page (videos, pics, etc)   Subscribe in iOS/Apple
