Feedback

How to approach this question

Recall the four stages of the basic information processing model and identify which stage comes directly after 'Input'.

Full Answer

A.Decision making✓ Correct
The correct answer is A. The basic information processing model follows the sequence: Input -> Decision making -> Output -> Feedback.
The basic information processing model describes the cognitive steps involved in performing a skill. The sequence is: 1. Input: Information is gathered from the senses (e.g., seeing the ball). 2. Decision making: The brain processes this information and selects an appropriate response (e.g., deciding to pass the ball). 3. Output: The muscles perform the chosen action (e.g., kicking the ball). 4. Feedback: Information about the success of the action is received, which informs future attempts.

Common mistakes

Students often confuse the order of 'Decision making' and 'Output'. Remember that you must decide what to do before you can actually do it.
