Enhancing the learning of sports skills through verbal feedback.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

A critical aspect of motor skill acquisition is the feedback provided to the learner. Numerous studies have attempted to identify the most effective approach to providing feedback to individuals in the process of learning or refining motor skills. We investigated to determine the effectiveness of verbal feedback in learning the round-off back somersault on the balance beam with stable landing.

Methods

The research material consisted of female gymnasts (n = 16). They were randomly assigned to one of two groups: FKE group (n = 8) with feedback on key elements, or FAE group (n = 8) with 100% feedback on all errors made in the phase structure of the task.

Results

Based on research, it was established that key elements could be identified
