321 – Differential Learning III: Clarifying Methodology, Acute Training Effects & Brain Activity

A more detailed look at the manipulations used in Differential Learning. Are the movement variants representative? Will they induce an internal focus of attention? As a coach, how should you choose variants appropriate for the skill level and task being trained? And, a look at few recent studies in this area examining acute effects of training and changes in brain activity.   Articles: Short-Term Effects of Differential Learning and Contextual Interference in a Goalkeeper-like Task: Visuomotor Response Time and Motor Control Acute effects of differential learning on football kicking performance and in countermovement jump Differential Training Facilitates Early Consolidation in Motor Learning Post-task Effects on EEG Brain Activity Differ for Various Differential Learning and Contextual Interference Protocols   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 Subscribe in Anroid/Google   Support the podcast and receive bonus content   Credits: The Flamin' Groovies - Shake Some Action Mark Lanegan - Saint Louis Elegy via freemusicarchive.org and jamendo.com
