Rosalie, S.M. and Müller, S.ORCID: 0000-0001-5777-4953 (2012) A model for the transfer of perceptual-motor skill learning in human behaviors. Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 83 (3). pp. 413-421.

Abstract

This paper presents a preliminary model that outlines the mechanisms underlying the transfer of perceptual-motor skill learning in sport and everyday tasks. Perceptual-motor behavior is motivated by performance demands and evolves over time to increase the probability of success through adaptation. Performance demands at the time of an event create a unique transfer domain that specifies a range of potentially successful actions. Transfer comprises anticipatory subconscious and conscious mechanisms. The model also outlines how transfer occurs across a continuum, which depends on the individual's expertise and contextual variables occurring at the incidence of transfer.
