Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of knowledge of performance (KP) frequency on motor skill learning. Thirty five female (20-30 years) were organized in two experimental groups: KP 100% (n = 18) and KP 33% (n = 17). A rope skill from rhythmic gymnastics was used. The design involved acquisition and retention phases with 60 and 10 trials, respectively. Performance was evaluated in terms of movement pattern. The results showed similar performance on the retention test. It was concluded that the frequencies of 100% and 33% of KP allowed similar learning.
