Abstract
To assess the role of qualitative knowledge of results (KR) in children's motor learning, four-year-old subjects performed a linear positioning task. Children were divided into three groups, each varying on KR precision. A significant reduction in variable error (p < .05) over trials seemed to indicate that children can utilize KR to become more consistent in learning. No significant differences were found among the three KR groups; however, the most precise KR condition tended to show fewer errors than the least precise KR condition. Some recommendations for future research are discussed.
