Motor Learning & Performance

0 Comments

Read Now
 
When applying ecological dynamics to motor learning, the focus is on how athletes learn to attune (awareness) their perceptual-motor skills to the information available in the environment. There’s an emphasis on the adaptive processes that occur over time through practice and experience.

On the other hand, motor performance examines how an athlete’s current state (physiological, psychological, etc.) interacts with the affordances (movement opportunities) provided by the environment. There’s a recognition that performance is a result of the real-time interactions between the individual, the task, and the environment.

In summary, motor learning involves the adaption of skills over time, leading to relatively “sticky” (permanent) changes, while motor performance refers to the immediate display of those skills in a specific situation.
