    Summary

    This study introduces a global model for motor skill acquisition, emphasizing learner-controlled cognitive strategies. Encouraging self-management of these strategies enhances learning, retention, and transfer of complex psychomotor tasks.

    Area of Science:

    • Cognitive Psychology
    • Motor Learning
    • Sports Science

    Background:

    • Complex motor behaviors involve cognitive control processes.
    • Learner-driven strategies are crucial for effective skill acquisition.
    • Understanding these processes aids in optimizing instructional methods.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a global model for motor behavior learning.
    • To identify learner-controlled cognitive strategies.
    • To enhance acquisition, retention, and transfer of psychomotor skills.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of cognitive and psychomotor literature.
    • Development of a global model focusing on control processes.
    • Identification of optimal learner strategies.

    Main Results:

    • Learner-controlled strategies facilitate motor skill acquisition.
    • Self-managed strategies improve learning, retention, and transfer.
    • Internal cognitive operations are key to effective motor behavior.

    Conclusions:

    • Learners should be encouraged to self-manage cognitive strategies.
    • Optimizing internal operations through strategy selection is vital.
    • This model supports instructional and self-learning in psychomotor domains.
