Sequence learning: Role of action observation and action

虽然动作序列的表现和学习已经得到了很好的实验关注，但很少有人关注参与者的观察实践和序列学习能力。这是一个关键的实际问题，因为表演者经常观察随后将表演的动作序列。观察练习和序列学习也具有相当大的理论意义，因为观察表演者如何在没有身体练习的情况下获得运动序列，应该为运动序列的结构，存储和执行的基本方式提供有价值的见解。本建议的主要目的是确定的条件下，观察实践提高运动序列学习的过程。这些问题将在前两个实验系列中进行研究。第二个目的是记录在观察由模型执行的序列期间的眼球运动。我们想要确定在观察视觉引导动作中显示的序列运动期间是否显示预测性眼球运动。眼动的问题将在实验系列3中进行研究。1月9日至12月9日：实验1A -1C 1月10日至12月10日：实验2A和2B 1月11日至12月11日：实验3A和2B

While the performance and learning of movement sequences has received a good bit of experimental attention, little if any focused attention has been directed at participants* ability to observational practice and sequence learning. This is a critical practical issue because performers often observe the movement sequence that will be performed afterwards. Observational practice and sequence learning are also of considerable theoretical interest because observing how performers acquire a movement sequence without physical practice should provide valuable insights into the fundamental ways in which movement sequences are structured, stored, and executed. The primary purpose of the present proposal is to identify the conditions under which and the process by which observational practice improves movement sequence learning. These questions will be investigated in the first two experimental series. The second purpose is to record the eye movement during observation of a sequence performed by a model. We want to determine whether predictive eye movements are displayed during the observation of a sequence movement as displayed in visually guided actions. The question of eye movements will be investigated in experimental series 3.January 09 - December 09: Experiments 1A - 1CJanuary 10 - December 10: Experiments 2A & 2BJanuary 11 - December 11: Experiments 3A &
