Abstract

The objective of the current study was to compare the effects of self controlled knowledge of results (KR) with externally controlled frequencies, in the learning of a motor task with a requirement of force in adults. Twenty four subjects were used, distributed into two groups: the self-controlled group and the externally-controlled group. The tasks required that the participants press an analogical manual dynamometer with the goal of reaching a correct score of 50% of the maximum strength. No statistical differences were found between the groups.
