Abstract

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of increased feedback on outcome and performance using a simulator on the acquisition of shooting skills. Which was performed semi-experimentally with a pre-test and post-test two-group design on 30 beginner shooters with an age range of 18 to 22. Subjects were divided into control and experimental groups and performed 12 shooting training sessions. The control group received feedback only from the instructor and the experimental group received feedback from both the instructor and the skate machine. Data analysis using repeated measures analysis of variance test and analysis of covariance showed that feedback on the result provided by the instructor has a significant effect on the acquisition of shooting skills (p = 0.01), as well as knowledge feedback. The result presented through the skate machine has a significant effect on the acquisition of shooting skills (p = 0.01). In addition, there is a significant difference between the trend of performance changes during acquisition in the feedback group by the coach and the skate group (p = 0.01). In general, the results showed that increased feedback by the instructor and the skate machine simultaneously improves shooting skills due to its error detection, hand vibration control and focus on the shooter.
