Document Summary
It has been found to be a powerful tool for learning motor skills in sport performance, as well as influencing behaviour change. If there is a compromise at any of these points, the model will not be as effective: the biggest limitation in this model tends to be with motivation. It is generally easy to get people to pay attention (especially if it is something that will help them), but motivation to engage in the required behaviour tends to be the difficulty. Rehabilitation: modeling is particularly useful for rehabilitation settings, there has been limited attention on modeling in rehabilitation, however from the study that has been done, modeling has been shown to be effective. Background for why modeling is needed in injury rehab. Injury is an inevitable part of sports: some injuries and the resulting surgical intervention may have particular effects of functioning, rehab protocols must be placed on both conditioning the body and mind.
