TLDR
The effects of relative frequency of knowledge of results on the retention of a motor skill was studied and Schmidt's theory of recognition schema updates suggested that the recognition schema is updated only on trials on which the feedback stimuli associated with the criterion position are experienced in conjunction withknowledge of results.Abstract:
The effects of relative frequency of knowledge of results on the retention of a motor skill was studied. Adams' theory (1971) contends that the perceptual trace of a criterion position gains on increment of strenth each time the feedback stimuli associated with the criterion position are experienced and that it is the strength of the perceptual trace that determines retention. Schmidt's theory (1975), however, suggests that the recognition schema is updated only on trials on which the feedback stimuli associated with the criterion position are experienced in conjunction with knowledge of results and that it is the precision of the recognition schema that determines retention. Two experiments were conducted. The results provided evidence contrary to Adams' theory. Schmidt's theory, however, was only partially supported.read more

Knowledge of results and motor learning: a review and critical reappraisal.
TL;DR: A number of new relations emerge between KR and both learning and performance, and it is emphasized that it also acts as guidance, enhancing performance when it is present but degrading learning if it is given too frequently.

Reduced frequency of knowledge of results enhances motor skill learning.
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of variations in the relative frequency of the knowledge of results acquisition on motor skill learning were examined in three experiments in which the effect of variation in the frequency of knowledge acquisition was examined.

Haptic Guidance Can Enhance Motor Learning of a Steering Task
TL;DR: It is concluded that haptic guidance can benefit short-term learning of a steering-type task while also limiting performance errors during training.

Optimizing summary knowledge of results for skill learning
TL;DR: In this paper, a guidance hypothesis for summary knowledge of results (KR) was proposed to find an optimal number of trials to be contained in the summary of a set of trials, with the last trial in the set having been completed.

Effect of Bandwidth Knowledge of Results on Movement Consistency
TL;DR: Although the subjects in the BW10 group received knowledge of results fewer times during acquisition, they showed less within-subject variability chan the BW5 and KR groups on the transfer test which suggests that giving KR about a relatively large bandwidth enhances movement consistency.

A schema theory of discrete motor skill learning.
TL;DR: In this article, a new theory for discrete motor learning is proposed, based on the notion of the schema and uses a recall memory to produce movement and a recognition memory to evaluate response correctness.

Issues for a Closed-Loop Theory of Motor Learning
TL;DR: The closed-loop theory of motor learning has been studied in this paper, where the response outcome for the system is primarily determined by system changes that reinforcement has made, which has often been conceptualized as habit.
