Motor Learning Blocked vs Random Practice Lookup

Audit actual practice task-switch/block structure under caller maximum block policy; switching alone does not prove randomness, optimal motor learning, transfer or retention.

Description

Task-switch evidence describes practice structure without establishing randomness.

Task-switch evidence describes practice structure without establishing randomness. Same-task runs are counted as blocks.^[1]

Enter at least two nonblank safe task IDs and integer maximum block length 1–128. Preserve exact IDs, group consecutive repeats and return block lengths, switch count, strict-over-policy block indexes and switch fraction.

When to use Motor Learning Blocked vs Random Practice Lookup

Use Motor Learning Blocked vs Random Practice Lookup when you need to evaluate the supplied records under the calculation and evidence rules below. No optimal learning, randomization proof, transfer or retention is inferred.

Prepare the annotated dance, timing, rehearsal or inventory records requested. Supply caller rules, evidence flags and local reference values; distinguish beats, bars, counts and seconds.

How to use Motor Learning Blocked vs Random Practice Lookup and understand its results

Prepare the annotated dance, timing, rehearsal or inventory records requested. Supply caller rules, evidence flags and local reference values; distinguish beats, bars, counts and seconds.
Enter observedPracticeTaskIds, callerMaximumSameTaskBlockLength using the field table and calculation rules, then run the tool.
Read observedSameTaskBlockLengths, observedTaskSwitchCount, blocksAboveCallerPracticePolicyIndices, adjacentTaskSwitchFraction. The explanation below defines the units, signs, ordering and any flags or placeholder values.
If the tool reports an input issue, correct the values and run it again. Apply the stated assumptions when interpreting a successfully returned result.

Input field	Meaning	Value type; see rules below	Requirement
observedPracticeTaskIds	Observed practice task ids	list of string	Required
callerMaximumSameTaskBlockLength	Caller maximum same task block length	number	Required

switchFraction=(blockCount−1)/(trialCount−1)

Units, indexing, boundary conditions and exceptional cases are defined in the calculation rules above.

Output field	Meaning	Value type
observedSameTaskBlockLengths	Observed same task block lengths	list of number
observedTaskSwitchCount	Observed task switch count	number
blocksAboveCallerPracticePolicyIndices	Blocks above caller practice policy indices	list of number
adjacentTaskSwitchFraction	Adjacent task switch fraction	number

Limitations and assumptions

No optimal learning, randomization proof, transfer or retention is inferred.

Numeric inputs, where present, must be finite. Follow the calculation-specific rules for overflow, underflow and exceptional cases. Numeric lists are limited to 10,000 entries; string lists to 128 strings of at most 128 characters each. The rules above may impose smaller limits. Missing required fields, extra fields, wrong value types and violations of the calculation rules are input errors.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Use Combo Learning Speed 8counts Per Run Lookup: Observed cumulative phrase mastery supports a simple learning-rate estimate. No observed progress leaves remaining horizon unavailable. For a complementary task, use Mirror Dependency Facing Away Transfer Drill Lookup: Matched phrase error counts expose transfer differences between mirror and facing-away conditions. Signed differences allow improvement.
