Dunham, Paul, Jr. – Research Quarterly, 1977
The results of this study fail to provide a basis for concluding that the ability to perform a simple coincidence anticipation task with the right foot is facilitated by subsequent practice with the left foot. (MM)

Husak, William S.; Reeve, T. Gilmour – Research Quarterly, 1979
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)

MacGillivary, William W. – Research Quarterly, 1979
Factors contributing to successful performance of ball skills are examined. (MM)

Wallace, Stephen A.; Hagler, Richard W. – Research Quarterly, 1979
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)

Roberton, Mary Ann; And Others – Research Quarterly, 1979
This research provides longitudinal information on the motor development of children in kindergarten through second grade. (MM)

Sage, George H.; Hornak, James E. – Research Quarterly, 1978
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of progressive and gradually increasing speed practice on motor skill acquisition using the pursuit rotor. (JD)

Williams, L. R. T.; And Others – Research Quarterly, 1977
Comparison of performance between subjects who practice transcendental meditation and those who do not revealed that meditation does not improve fine motor skills although it has many other benefits. (JD)

Singer, Robert N.; Gerson, Richard F. – Research Quarterly, 1981
The task classification scheme suggests that motor skills be categorized as the processing demands placed on a learner, feedback availability, and pacing conditions. Potential learning strategies were identified and defined in relation to the classification scheme. (JN)
