Acquisition, retention and transfer of heavy equipment operator skills through simulator training
<p>Initiatives and collaborations among heavy construction equipment manufacturing companies and training technology firms to develop and employ simulators for varied training purposes are becoming commonplace. However, human factors research on simulator training for operators of construction …

The Effect Of Immediate Feedback And After Action Reviews (AARS) On Learning, Retention And Transfer
… The purpose of the AAR is to improve team (unit) and individual performance in order to increase organizational readiness. While a large body of knowledge exists that discusses instructional strategies, feedback and training systems, neither the AAR process nor the AAR systems have been examined …

Impact of HIV and AIDS on intergenerational knowledge formation, retention and transfer and its implication for both sectoral and summative, governances in Namibia.
… from the preoccupation with the obvious (crude and quantifiable impacts), towards critically examining the subtle (less than obvious impacts), which will allow us to deal with adversities (the likes of HIV and AIDS) in the most effective ways. The thesis adopts the summative governance framework …

The effects of variable practice and subjective estimation on error-detection capabilities
<p>Retention and transfer for ballistic open motor skills may best be achieved through specific + variable practice along with error estimation. Inconsistent support for the variability of practice hypothesis warrants a cross-testing of this hypothesis. Estimation had been used and found beneficial …

Using repeated testing and variable encoding to promote transfer of learning
Within the literature on transfer of learning, relatively few studies have investigated how the conditions of initial learning can be arranged to increase the likelihood of successful transfer. The present research investigated whether test-enhanced learning can be used to promote transfer. More …

Relevant Versus Extraneous Music in Multimedia Instruction: A Study of the Coherence Principle
… learners’ ability to recall information in retention, cued-retention, and transfer cognitive measures. This study tested the coherence principle of multimedia learning which holds that the addition of nonessential content that is not relevant to the instruction is detrimental to learning. …

CONDITIONS OF PRACTICE FOR PERCEPTUAL-COGNITIVE SIMULATION TRAINING IN SPORT
… of practice were examined for the practice, retention and transfer of perceptual-cognitive skill, specifically anticipation in tennis. First, from the motor skills literature, the contextual interference (CI) effect was investigated for the first time in perceptual-cognitive skill training. A …

Optimizing training designs and elevating reporting standards in simulation-based medical education
… focusing on protocol reporting, technical skill retention/transfer, and training microstructures. Study 1 developed and assessed new protocol reporting and evaluation tools (PRT and PET) to measure the quality of reporting (QOR) in simulation studies. Using a modified Delphi method, the PRT and …

The effects of consistency and inconsistency between attentional focus and task objective in learning a golf putting task
… an external focus of attention (i.e., outcome) and an external task objective (i.e., putting accuracy). The present study examined whether or not the consistency of instructions and task objective would differentially impact the acquisition of a golf putting task. Participants performed a …

Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation of the Wrist Flexors
… (N=24) were matched on predicted strength and randomly assigned to either the control or experimental group. Training occurred during three test sessions within a one-week period. Retention and transfer (crossed-condition) tests were administered during a fourth test session two- weeks …

Teaching the Unknowable: Does Analogy Lead to Implicit Skill Acquisition in a Dart-Throwing Task?
… (while performing a distracting secondary task), and analogy (while imagining an analogous physical image). Each participant threw 6 blocks of 40 darts, receiving repeated instructions before each block. The next day (Day 2), participants were tested for retention and for transfer by the addition …

An Investigation of Multimedia Instruction, the Modality Principle, and Reading Comprehension in Fourth-Grade Classrooms
… approaches. The use of instruction with visuals and audio has resulted in positive learning outcomes on retention and transfer tasks for junior-high and high-school students. This approach that results in the modality principle has been tested less frequently in elementary-aged students.</p> …

Structure of force as a predictor of oral motor learning in healthy younger and older adults
This study examined the relationship of lingual and labial force structure to learning of oral motor continuous fine force tasks using a pursuit tracking paradigm. It investigated how error and the temporal and frequency structure of force during baseline performance predicted oral motor learning …
