Psychomotor domain includes physical and motor (or muscular) skills. Every act has a psychomotor component. Psychomotor skills need to be performed and observed to determine mastery of the skill.

motor (or muscular) skills. This means much more than the gaining of skills in games and physical education. Every act has a psychomotor component. For instance, writing and talking are psychomotor skills which must be acquired if the child is to function successfully in our society. In the learning situation there is again a progression from mere physical experience - seeing, touching, moving etc. - through the carrying out of complex skills under guidance, to the performance of skilled activities independently.
What is a psychomotor behaviour? If you are trying to figure out if your behaviour is cognitive, affective, or psychomotor, consider the following factors. Speed may be a factor in psychomotor skills. Equipment and/or tools may be needed to perform the psychomotor skills. Testing requires more than just a paper-based assessment and a pencil. Psychomotor skills need to be performed and observed to determine mastery of the skill.
Examples and Non-examples Examples: How to ride a bike Wrapping a present Creates a Dance step Non-examples: Types of bikes Types of wrapping paper Types of Dances
The six levels from simplest to most complex are: Reflex Movements: Reflex movements are defined as involuntary motor responses to stimuli. They form the basis for all behaviour involving movement of any kind.
When a receptor is stimulated, it sends a signal to the central nervous system, where the brain co-ordinates the response. But sometimes, a very quick response is needed, one that does not need the involvement of the brain. This is a reflex action. Reflex actions are rapid and happen without us thinking. For example, you would pull your hand away from a hot flame without thinking about it.
Basic fundamental movements are defined as those inherent body movement patterns, which build upon the foundation laid by reflex movements. They usually occur during the first year of life, and unfold rather than are taught or consciously acquired. These movements involve movement patterns which change a child from a stationary to an ambulatory learner.
Perceptual abilities are really inseparable from motor movements. They help learners to interpret stimuli so that they can adjust to their environment. Superior motor activities depend upon the development of perception. They involve kinaesthetic discrimination, visual discrimination, auditory discrimination and co- ordinated abilities of eye and hand, eye and foot.
Physical abilities are essential to efficient motor activity. They are concerned with the vigour of the person, and allow the individual to meet the demands placed upon him or her in and by the environment. Skilled movements are defined as any efficiently performed complex movement. They require learning and should be based upon some adaptation of the inherent patterns of movement described in level number two above.
Non-discursive communication can be defined as comprising those behaviours which are involved in movement communication. They can range from facial expressions to highly sophisticated dance choreographies as in classical
Gross Motor Movement: Ability to move limbs Fine Motor Movement: Ability to move body in coordination with eyes and ears Non-Verbal Communication: Communication through gestures, expressions, and bodily movements Speech Behaviours: Transmission of speech and projection of sound
Early stages of learning a complex skill, overtly, after the individual has indicated a readiness to take a particular type of action.
Includes repeating an act that has been demonstrated or explained
Includes trial and error until an appropriate response is achieved
Examples of activity or demonstration and evidence to be measured Watch teacher or trainer and repeat action, process or activity Example: Copying a work of art.
Illustrative Verbs Began - Move Assemble - Practice Attempt - Proceed Carryout - Repeat Copy - Reproduce Construct - Respond Dissect - Organize Duplicate - Sketch Follow - Start
Individual continues to practice a particular skill or sequence until it becomes habitual and the action can be performed with some confidence and proficiency. The response is more complex than the previous level. The learner is still not sure of themselves.
Carry out task from written or verbal instruction
Example: Creating work on one's own, after taking lessons, or reading about it Illustrative Verbs Acquire Make Assemble Manipulate Complete Operate Conduct Pace Do Perform Execute Produce Improve Progress Maintain Use
Skill has been attained.
Proficiency is indicated by a quick, smooth, accurate performance, requiring minimum energy.
Overt response is complex and performed without hesitation.
Perform a task or activity with expertise and to high quality without assistance or instruction; able to demonstrate an activity to other learners Example: Working and reworking something, so it will be "just right." Illustrative Verbs Achieve Refine Accomplish Succeed Advance Surpass Automatist Transcend Exceed Excel Master Reach Involves a higher level of precision.
Skills are so well developed that the individual can modify movement patterns to fit special requirements or to meet a problem situation
Relate and combine associated activities to develop methods to meet varying, novel requirements
Example: Producing a video that involves music, drama, color, sound, etc.
Responses are automatic.
Individual begins to experiment, creating new motor acts or ways of manipulating materials out of understandings, abilities, and skills developed.
One acts without thinking Define aim, approach and strategy for use of activities to meet strategic need
Examples: Michael Jordan playing basketball, Nancy Lopez hitting a golf ball, Sachin Tendulkar playing cricket. Illustrative Verbs Arrange Design Combined compose Refine Construct Originate Create Transcend A note about targeting the psychomotor domain This is the domain that most academic program areas (including Business Education) deal with the least The main characteristic of this domain is that physical ability is what is being dealt with When targeting the psychomotor domain (for test questions, writing objectives, etc. . . ) ask yourself what is being evaluated?
Simply having physical activity involved to complete the task does not indicate the student is working or being evaluated in the psychomotor domain (at least as the dominant domain) Poor Example The student will key a letter in block format. There is no measurement/evaluation of anything physical This is in the cognitive domain and application level since the learning being evaluated is the students knowledge of keying a letter in block format
Good Example: The child needs to process the following information:
* from the eyes (where are the shoelaces?) * from the fingers (what shape are the shoelaces under the fingers? How tight is the knot?, etc)
They then need to combine this information with controlling the muscles of the fingers and hands to move the shoelaces in the correct way.
Some illustrative verbs are used in more than one level of a single domain.
The use of a verb in itself does not guarantee the level and domain targeted is being addressed.
Ask What is (or what could be) evaluated?
Think about the complexity of the thoughts and/or skills required.
