Play • 35 min
  • 1:04 - The guidance hypothesis: the dichotomy of implicit and explicit learning.
    • Generally well developed and researched.
  • 1:49 - Rich Masters and the role of implicit and explicit learning on the effects of pressure and stress on performance.
  • 2:54 - Defining explicit and implicit learning.
  • 4:52 - Using golf putting as an example of studying the effects of implicit and explicit learning.
  • 6:00 - Tendencies to believe that implicit learning is drastically superior to explicit learning.
    • Both implicit and explicit groups in the golf putting study improved.
  • 6:32 - How the introduction of pressure and stress changed the results of the study.
    • The implicit group found little to no decrease in performance while the explicit group had detrimental effects to their performance.
  • 7:14 - Combating “choking” from a motor learning perspective.
  • 8:46 - Defining choking and its causes.
  • 10:15 - Rich Masters methods to induce implicit learning.
    • “Dual-task learning”
  • 13:25 - Creating an effective environment for implicit learning
  • 15:16 - Balancing explicit learning and implicit learning: how much time should athletes spend in each environment?
    • Depends on the athlete’s skill level.
  • 20:58 - Despite having a heavy emphasis on implicit learning, does Kasey still debrief with his athletes or give them direct instructions?
    • Overlapping elements.
  • 26:39 - Using the theories to also guide communication with athletes.
  • 30:13 - How coaches can know if they have actually established an effective implicit learning environment with benefits to their athletes’ performance.
