THEORIES OF LEARNING
INSIGHT LEARNING - COGNITIVE
- Learning through experiencing whole skill → isolated parts → kinaesthesis
- The performer has to think about what they are doing prior to experiences &
knowledge
- Use their knowledge to adapt to sporting situations
- Develop their own strategies
- Created independent thinkers
- Increases intrinsic motivations
OPERANT CONDITIONING - BEHAVIOURISM - SKINNER
- Making a strength between stimulus and response
- Once the bond is made → increases the likelihood of response
- S-R bond formed by reinforcement
- Reinforced actions = strengthened
- Incorrect actions = weakened
How coaches allow performers to learn through operant conditioning
- Trial and error → punish reinforcement
- Manipulate the environment → to ensure the correct response
- Offer a satisfier and annoyer → positive & negative reinforcement
SOCIAL LEARNING THEORY - OBSERVATIONAL - BANDURA
- Watching & replicating the actions of other ‘models’ who we respect and admire
- Models → significant others
