Abstract

This study explored the impact of choice and preference for what is chosen or assigned on performance on a motor task. Using an experimental design with a dart-throwing task, 90 novice participants were randomized into four groups: Choice-Like condition, Choice-Dislike condition, Assigned-Like condition, and Assigned-Dislike condition, resulting of the manipulation of choice (vs. assignation) of a task-irrelevant element and preference (irrelevant element: darts color and design). The study found that participants who were given the opportunity to choose their own dart for a throwing task performed better than those who were not given the choice. Participants who threw a dart they preferred also had better scores than those who threw a dart they did not like. However, the interactive effects of choice and preference on performance were inconclusive, and whereas being assigned with a disliked element was the worst condition for performance, and being allowed to choose preferred elements the most facilitatory one, nothing else can be concluded on the impact of both conditions alone or in combination. These results suggest that both choice and preference can positively impact performance in closed motor learning tasks and have practical applications for training and execution in athletic performance. Further investigations are warranted to delve into the interplay of choice and preference in diverse contexts and populations.

根据对任务无关元素的选择或分配,在运动任务中的表现会有所不同:随机对照研究
本研究探讨了选择和偏好对运动任务表现的影响。通过投掷飞镖任务的实验设计,90 名新手被随机分为四组:选择-喜欢条件组、选择-不喜欢条件组、分配-喜欢条件组和分配-不喜欢条件组,对任务无关元素的选择(与分配)和偏好(无关元素:飞镖的颜色和设计)进行操纵。研究发现,在投掷任务中,有机会自己选择飞镖的参与者比没有机会选择的参与者表现得更好。投掷自己喜欢的飞镖的参与者也比投掷自己不喜欢的飞镖的参与者得分更高。然而,选择和偏好对成绩的交互影响并没有定论,虽然被分配到不喜欢的元素对成绩的影响最差,而允许选择偏好的元素对成绩的影响最大,但对这两种条件单独或组合的影响却没有其他结论。这些结果表明,在封闭式运动学习任务中,选择和偏好都能对成绩产生积极影响,并可实际应用于运动成绩的训练和执行。我们有必要进一步研究选择和偏好在不同环境和人群中的相互作用。

期刊介绍: Human Movement Science provides a medium for publishing disciplinary and multidisciplinary studies on human movement. It brings together psychological, biomechanical and neurophysiological research on the control, organization and learning of human movement, including the perceptual support of movement. The overarching goal of the journal is to publish articles that help advance theoretical understanding of the control and organization of human movement, as well as changes therein as a function of development, learning and rehabilitation. The nature of the research reported may vary from fundamental theoretical or empirical studies to more applied studies in the fields of, for example, sport, dance and rehabilitation with the proviso that all studies have a distinct theoretical bearing. Also, reviews and meta-studies advancing the understanding of human movement are welcome. These aims and scope imply that purely descriptive studies are not acceptable, while methodological articles are only acceptable if the methodology in question opens up new vistas in understanding the control and organization of human movement. The same holds for articles on exercise physiology, which in general are not supported, unless they speak to the control and organization of human movement. In general, it is required that the theoretical message of articles published in Human Movement Science is, to a certain extent, innovative and not dismissible as just "more of the same."
