| What are the principles of the stages of motor learning? | Practice, feedback, transfer of training, mental practice, guidance, and motivation | |
| What are the principles of practice? | Amount, massed vs. distributed, constant vs. variable, blocked vs. random, part vs. whole | |
| Define massed practice. | Practice time is greater than rest time - THIS is what therapists SHOULD be doing in therapy | |
| Define distributed practice. | Rest time between trials is equal or greater than practice time | |
| Define constant practice. | Repeated practice of the same task under the same conditions | |
| Define variable practice. | Practicing under a variety of conditions | |
| What are the benefits of variable practice? | Improves transfer of learning (task specificity), but not appropriate for individuals with cognitive impairment | |
| During which stages is variable practice useful? | In the intermediate associative stage or late autonomous stage of motor learning | |
| Define blocked practice. | All repetitions of task A are performed before moving onto task B | |
| Define random practice. | No tasks is repeated two times in a row, random order, contextual interference | |
| Define part-task practice. | Used for tasks that can be broken naturally into discrete units (serial tasks) | |
| Define whole-task practice. | Used for tasks of short duration, or long continuous tasks/cyclical repetition, institute ASAP, better than part-task practice |
