Document Summary
Chapter 2: textbook processing information and making decisions. A major concern for the skilled performer is the evaluation of information, leading to decision-making about future action. Information is presented to the humans as input; the output is the skilled movement (like a computer) Three stages inside the human that allow the input information to be an output motor movment: stimulus identification, response selection, movement programming. These stages are nonoverlapping: each stage is done to completion before the following stage can begin. In a car, the traffic is slowing in front of you but not beside you. Required a transition process between sensory input and movement output. Takes the identified environmental stimulus and decides next course of action. I. e. if it is a car, does the car slow, avoid, and overtake the other vehicles. Takes the decided route of response determined in stage 2 and organizes the motor systems to make the motion.
