Theories of Motor Learning
u Adam's Two-Stage Theory
l Elements of Motor Behavior
u Perceptual trace: reference input into comparator.
u Memory trace - motor commands for a given  movement.
u You may lack either trace.
l How learning proceeds:
u the VERBAL-MOTOR stage:
v subject is without perceptual trace.
v subject is unable by self to judge improvement.
v improvement depends upon KR.
u the MOTOR stage.
v the subject has a good perceptual trace.
v external feedback is practically unimportant.
v behavior can still improve even without external KR.
