Term
The more predictable an event, the more potential it holds for information. |
|

Term
As response efficiency increases, neural activation increases. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
Processing feedback is not a factor in determining movement time. |

|
|
Term
Open loop control is more likely during the associative stage of learning. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
Reaction time is the time difference between the stimulus and response termination. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
Selective attention bottle necks information from serial processing to parallel processing. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
Bottom up processing is more efficient then top down processing. |

Definition
|
|
Term
The von Restorff effect indicates that the unique item is lost but adjacent items are remembered. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
Repetitive practice of the criteria response is the key to building motor memory. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
Afferent signals are involved in feedback and feed forward/expectation loops for motor control. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
One can determine cause/effect relationships from correlated observations. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
One processes more information during top-down processing as compared to bottom-up processing. |

|
Term
What is the number one difference between the box model and the levels of processing model? |
|
Definition
The quality of type. The levels of processing model distinguishes between the quality of practice, while the box model does not. |

|
|
Term
|
Definition
a source of forgetting caused by practice imposed between the original learning and the retention test for the to-be remembered task (new interferes with old) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
a source of forgetting caused by learning imposed before the original learning of some to-be remembered task (old interfering with new) |

|
Term
|
Definition
use feed back after the response to prepare for next response |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
we can remember something in the middle that is unique but it is at the expense of what comes before and after it (we forget those two) |
