Although we respond to tickles that are given by someone else, we do not respond when we attempt to tickle ourselves. The reason is simple: Although we respond to tickles that are given by someone else, we do not respond when we attempt to tickle ourselves (Claxton, 1975; Weiskrantz, Elliott, & Darlington, 1971), unless done under special circumstances. Indeed, functional magnetic resonance imaging investigations of the brain activity during tickles show less activation under self-generated...
Elliott and Khan contend that there are two types of visual regulation associated with goal-directed movement. We also looked to see whether this Müller-Lyer type of perturbation resulted in a discrete adjustment to the limb movement late in the trajectory, which is the result consistent with the notion of late regulation based on limb and target information (e.g., Elliott et al. It is certainly clear that goal-directed limb movement consists of two different phases—an initial movement phase...
Other multidimensional instruments containing physical scales that were not reviewed by Wylie include the Self-Rating Scale (Fleming & Courtney, 1984), which measures physical ability and physical appearance; the Song and Hattie Test (Hattie, 1992), which measures physical appearance; and the Multidimensional Self-Concept Scale (Bracken, 1996), which has a physical scale that includes physical competence, physical appearance, physical fitness, and health. Next the authors replaced the PSPP ...
In the two-component model of goal-directed aiming (Woodworth, 1899), the kinematic events during the initial portions of the movement reflect movement planning toward the target, while later kinematic events reflect the processing of sensory feedback during the corrective process. The location of peak velocity has been associated with the separation point between the initial, planned portion of the movement and the latter, feedback-based portion of the movement (e.g., Elliott, Binsted, & ...
