An information processing model of perceptual-motor behaviour are presented. Human performance theory is used to study those processes mediating input and output information. Specifically, the subprocesses of storage of information in memory, perception, retrieval of information from memory and execution of movement are examined. Principles derived from the model are applied to the teaching of motor skills, the study of mental retardation and the study of skill deterioration in old age.
