Overview of the Motor Development, Learning, and Control (MDLC) Online Research Seminar Series

The MDLC Online Research Seminar Series will support the Society’s function to advance scientific study, improve research quality, and facilitate research information dissemination in the area of motor learning and control. This Series aims to be an accessible platform for our international motor learning and control research community to present and discuss historical and emerging research topics in the months between the annual NASPSPA Conference.

Objectives

The organizing committee will deliver an annual Motor Learning & Control Online Research Seminar Series as a NASPSPA-affiliated activity to facilitate the development, advancement and dissemination of high-quality research in the area of motor learning and control. This will meet the following four needs for our membership:
  • Research engagement opportunities in between annual NASPSPA Conferences for scholars and students with interests in motor learning and control
  • Increase NASPSPA profile and membership offerings across the year
  • A platform to bring together the motor learning and control international research community across geographic locations to discuss historical and emerging topics
  • A forum to develop awareness and promote ideas relevant to motor learning and control research in the lead up to the annual NASPSPA Conference (e.g., developing themes for Conference symposia)

Committee

  • Maarten Immink, University of South Australia (Chair, Maarten.Immink@unisa.edu.au)
  • David I. Anderson, San Francisco State University
  • Keith R. Lohse, University of Utah
  • Harjiv Singh, University of Nevada, Las Vegas (Student Representative)
  • Diane Ste-Marie, University of Ottawa
  • Howard N. Zelaznik, Purdue University

List of Activities

The MLC Online Research Seminar Series will run between September and May and include topics proposed by NASPSPA members with interests in motor learning and control research. While some topics might be specific to motor learning and control research, we expect that some topics will be broad in scope to be of interest to researchers and students in the sport and exercise psychology and motor development areas. All NASPSPA members are invited to participate in seminars offered in the MLC Online Research Seminar Series. There is no cost to participate for current members.

Reports

The Organizing Committee of the seminar series has prepared the following reports:
  • 2020-2021 Annual Report
  • Post-Seminar Feedback Survey – Grand Challenges in Motor Learning, Control, & Development Research
  • Post-Seminar Feedback Survey – Open and Reproducible Research
  • MLC Research Topics Suggestion Survey

Approved Proposal

The NASPSPA Executive Committee acknowledges that other self-organized groups may want to put together proposals to address the needs of NASPSPA members.
