Short-Term Effect of Attributional Versus Non-Attributional Negative Normative Feedback on Motor Tasks: A Double-Blind Study Fernández Ozcorta, Eduardo José Arbinaga, Félix Checa, Irene Romero Pérez, Nehemías Cano Manzano, Pablo Godoy Izquierdo, Débora Augmented feedback Motor performance Motor learning Augmented feedback can alter motor performance. We examined if presenting attributional versus non-attributional negative normative feedback differently impacted short-term motor performance. With a double-blind experimental design, 49 students (36.7% female, Mage = 17.14 and SD = ±0.35) were assigned to the following two groups: G1: Attributional Negative Normative Feedback group (n = 24) and G2: Non-Attributional Negative Normative Feedback group (n = 25), with the dependent variable being the score obtained on a dart-throwing test. The results showed that those participants who received negative social comparative feedback presented in an attributional way (internal, controllable, and unstable) obtained higher scores in the dart throwing task than those who received negative social comparative feedback presented in a non-attributional way. Furthermore, these differences were maintained in the retention and transfer tests conducted 24 h after the practice phase. These findings have practical implications in motor behavior learning and performance. 2024-10-29T12:05:13Z 2024-10-29T12:05:13Z 2024-10-28 journal article Fernández-Ozcorta, E.J.; Arbinaga, F.; Checa, I.; Romero-Pérez, N.; Cano-Manzano, P.; Godoy- Izquierdo, D.
