Abstract

THE EFFECTS OF SUPPLEMENTAL VISUAL CUES ON PERFORMANCE AND LEARNING OF A ROTARY PURSUIT (RP) TASK WERE STUDIED. 2 FORMS OF AUGMENTED VISUAL FEEDBACK (AF) WERE COMPARED WITH A NO-FEEDBACK CONDITION IN WHICH 15 NAIVE, MALE, RIGHT-HANDED, UNDERGRADUATE SS PARTICIPATED PER GROUP. THE SUPPLEMENTATION CONSISTED OF A YELLOW LIGHT WHICH ILLUMINATED THE RP DISPLAY WHEN S WAS EITHER ON OR OFF TARGET. 33 TRAINING AND 9 TRANSFER 20-SEC TRIALS (WHEN AF WAS WITHDRAWN) WERE GIVEN IN 2 TESTING SESSIONS, 21 TRIALS/SESSION. BOTH MODES OF AF PRESENTATION WERE SUPERIOR TO THE NO AF CONDITION DURING BOTH TRAINING AND TRANSFER. A SLIGHT SUPERIORITY WAS NOTED FOR OFF TARGET AF.
