Schema theory and practice variability within a neo-piagetian framework
1a Movement Science Program , Florida State University.
Abstract:
Schema theory and neo-Piagetian theory were combined to explain psychomotor performance of female children. A curvilinear repositioning task was employed to test motor recall of a novel response. Results indicated support for the schema theory postulation of symmetry of motor memory across varying spatial locations. High M-processors performed significantly better than low M-processors, supporting the tenets of neo-Piagetian theory. It was concluded that a combination of the two theories offers a viable beginning in the understanding of children's psychomotor performance.
