In motor skill performance and retention, the complexity of knowledge of results should interact appropriately with the child's processing rate, since children process information in short-term memory more slowly than adults, and their control processes (rehearsal, naming, grouping, and recording) become more efficient only with increased age. (JD)

The results of this study indicate that both single-goal and multi-goal variable practice conditions, given adequate amounts of practice, will lead to the development of a motor schema capable of accurately producing a novel response. (MM)

Factors contributing to successful performance of ball skills are examined. (MM)

Learning is possible in the absence of knowledge of performance when knowledge of results is present, but a higher level of performance is achieved when both types of information are present. (MM)

The study investigated the subtest items included in the test. (JS)

Goal-setting positively affected achievement in the motor skills involved in archery. (JD)

In a competitive situation success and failure were attributed to degrees of ability, effort, and luck, and results show they affect intrinsic motivation of males and females differently. (JD)

Competition interaction indicated that males exhibited more intrinsic motivation during competition than when not in competition, whereas females displayed no differences between these conditions. (JD)

Results of an analysis of the Avery-Richardson Tennis Serve Test are presented. (JD)

Test results on the effects of achievement outcome on causal attributions were determined using a stabilometer performance as the criterion task. (JD)

A reexamination of the arousal-performance relationship indicates that anxiety should be viewed as a multidimensional construct consisting of physical, behavioral, and cognitive components. (CJ)
