Samenvatting
This book contains the papers presented at a conference on "Acquisition of skill" held March 8-12-1965 in New Orleans. The book begins with a history of research. The second chapter, on selective learning, is the first substantive chapter. Chapter 3 covers the topic of individual differences. A succession of chapters 4,5,6,7, follows in which the motor literature, and some verbal as well, is covered, but in which the authors make more of a point of speaking to the issues of learning. Chapters 8 and 9 are more frankly motors, dealing with tracking and moving respectively.
