Using Auditory Feedback in Body Weight Training
Vorbeck, Benedict; Bördlein, Christoph
Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, v53 n4 p2349-2359 Aut 2020
Auditory feedback has been successfully used to enhance performance in several sports such as golf and dance. The current study used auditory feedback procedures (i.e., a clicker) to improve the performance of 3 students performing a handstand. Handstands are part of a discipline called "body weight training," that uses only the weight of an individual's own body to gain strength and body control. A multiple baseline design across four components was used to evaluate the effectiveness of auditory feedback. The results showed that auditory feedback was effective. The students and the trainer were highly satisfied with the auditory feedback procedure. Implications for future research are discussed.
