Effectiveness of different extrinsic feedback forms on motor learning in children with cerebral palsy: a systematic review.

Due to the heterogeneity of existing studies, it is difficult to draw firm conclusions regarding relative effectiveness of feedback forms. This review showed that more high-quality research is warranted on the effectiveness of specific feedback forms on motor learning in children with CP.Implications for RehabilitationChildren with CP benefit from several forms of knowledge of performance or knowledge of results feedback provided during or after performing a movement task.Feedback should not be provided with every performed trial.Feedback frequency can best be reduced by letting children determine after which trials they want feedback.Learning curves under similar feedback conditions varied largely between children, warranting tailor-made forms of feedback to be applied during motor learning and rehabilitation.
