GONCALVES, Lucia Afonso; SANTOS, Suely dos e CORREA, Umberto Cesar. Practice schedule and age on the adaptive process of the coincident timing task learning. Rev. Bras. Educ. Fís. Esporte [online]. 2010, vol.24, n.04, pp.433-443. ISSN 1981-4690.
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of different practice schedules on the adaptive process of a coincident timing task learning in function of age. Children (n = 40), adults (n = 47) and elderly (n = 57) were distributed into constant, random, constant-random and random-constant practice groups. The task consisted of touching response keys sequentially in conjunction with a visual stimulus. The experimental design was consisted of two learning phases: stabilization and adaptation. The data were analyzed in terms of absolute, variable, constant and execution errors. The results showed that the constant-random practice was the most efficient for the adaptive process in learning a coincident timing task regardless of the age group.
