Elaboration Hypothesis
Shea & Zimny (1983)
n When individuals change from one task to another, as
in random-variable practice, they have a greater
opportunity to learn the distinctive elements of
each task
n Creates denser neural networks, more effective
synaptic connections
n In blocked practice, this occurs to a lesser degree or
not at all (automaticity takes over of simpler skills)
n Also called the distinctive and more meaning full hypothesis

Random-Variable Practice
Enhances Memory Formation
27
1) Episodic Memory
Episodic defined:
reconstruction of past
experiences,
sensations, successes,
failures, highs, lows,
strategies, drills
Experienced from ones
own point of view
Eg. Drill in racquet
sports - Ability to see
opponent before
returning the shot

2) Semantic Memory
or declarative
Defined: Factual
31
During exercise,
asks high level of
questions about
balance, bumping,
focus of attention both declarative &
procedural
knowledge of sport
trained at same time,
plus develop fitness
32
3) Procedural Memory
Defined - automatic motor
in neural networks in
midbrain, basal ganglia and
cerebellum
of a skill become
automatic can the athlete
do more

terms memories
Sends processed memories to
the part of the brain where they
were first created, eg. lines,
colors, edges to occipital cortex;
decisions & strategies to frontal
cortex, etc
Amygdala
38
synchronous firing of
neurons makes it more likely
they will fire again
1. Input
2 Circuit formation
3 Increasing activity
Long term
potentiation - When a
pattern of neurons becomes
permanently sensitized to
each other

More On Perception
1) Perception - Explains how we process sensory
information (vision, hearing, touch, smell, taste) in very
short periods of time, usually less than 100 ms
(1000 ms in 1 second).
Considered subconscious (lack of awareness); we have
no recollection of this information, nor can we recall it
when asked.
With effort, an object shifts from perception to
awareness. Try these exercises

Applications
Is Variable and Random Practice
Good for Alzheimers Patients?
79
NO
Plaque builds up in the brain
and destroys synaptic
connections. Cause unknown.
Severe memory loss
Build up of a protein (beta
amyloid) destroys brain tissue
Early onset can occur, but
more prevalent in over 70 age;

Recommended for Alzheimer Patients?

Practice Scheduling
Is it better to schedule short practices over
a longer period of time (ex. 1 hr per day for
12 weeks)
OR
n long practices over a shorter period of time
(ex. 2 hrs per day for 6 weeks)
n How is learning, retention & transfer
affected?
