Automatic Information Processing and High Performance Skills: Acquisition, Transfer, and Retention

Abstract

Ten experiments involving basic laboratory research on automatic processing theory and skill acquisition are reviewed. The experiments were conducted to investigate the following issues: effects of modified practice, transfer of training, skill decay, and retention. The results of this work provide an understanding of skill acquisition, retention, and transfer with respect to high performance skills training.
