    Abstract:
    The effects of two different bandwidths of information of Knowledge of Results (KR) were investigated. 54 university students participated. The experiment consisted of an acquisition phase with practice of throwing a saloon dart as accurately as possible at a target lying on the floor 2.5 meters away until a specific area of the target was hit three trials in a row. Narrow bandwidth and Wide bandwidth groups received KR when performance was outside the bandwidth. A Control group received KR after every trial. A transfer test was run 10 min. later with 10 more trials and the target 3.0 m away, with no KR. Analyses showed that narrow KR bandwidth was associated with better learning of real world tasks.
