Anticipation
What is an example of PRP that experienced players use in a match?
Dummies
Anticipation comes with what?
Experience
What seven things help improve Response time?
1.Warm Up 2.Practice 3.Mental Rehearsal 4.Arousal control 5.Physical Fitness 6.Learning your opponents 7.Identify common and Personal cue
Why does a bottle neck occur?
A Bottle neck occurs because two inputs are taken in around the same time and the first stimulus/input must be processed before the second one can be processed, this causes a delay in the reaction time/response time of the second stimulus.
Give an example of how PRP is used in rugby?
A Dummy passed is played so the opposing player reacts to the dummy trying to intercept the ball but the passer doesn't throw the ball.
If two pieces of information come in at one time/very close in time to one another what happens?
A bottle neck occurs
What does PRP stand for?
Physiological Refractory Period
What is Spatial anticipation?
Predicting what will happen e.g. predicting where the ball will bounce in cricket
What is Temporal anticipation?
Predicting when it will happen e.g. guess when to set an offside trap in football or predicting when a player will pass.
Anticipation has two forms, name them.
- Spatial - Temporal
How many pieces of information can your brain process at a time
One
What does PRP help to increase?
Reaction time
Response time =
Reaction time + Movement time
What is the hypothesis called that's states the brain can only process on piece of information at a time?
Single Channel Hypothesis (bottle neck hypothesis)
Draw PRP diagram
Stimulus 1 goes to response 1 which goes to stimulus 2 and Response 2. PRP takes place between Response 1 and Stimulus 2.
Anticipation helps the performer to predict what?
The Outcome
What happens if the second stimulus is more relevant than the first stimulus that is taken in?
The first stimulus still must be processed even if the first stimulus is now irrelevant.
True or false: Input can come in quicker than the time taken to process it?
True
