AQA GCSE PE: The Basic Information Processing Model | AQA Paper 2

This video will help you understand each of the four stages that make up the information processing model. It is in hope that this video will help strengthen and consolidate your understanding, which will prove pivotal during your paper 2 examination.

You need to understand the following:

• The role of each stage (input, decision making, output and feedback) of the model.
• Input - information from the display (senses), selective attention.
• Decision making - selection of appropriate response from memory. The role of long term and short term memory.
• Output - information sent to muscles to carry out the response.
• Feedback - received via self (intrinsic) and/or others (extrinsic).
• Draw (in a box format) and/or explain the stages of a basic model of information processing.

You also need to be able to apply the basic information processing model to skills from a range of sporting examples.

I have attached the AQA specification below where you can read about this.

Key terms: information processing model, input, senses, stimuli, selective attention, decision making (short term & long term memory), output, feedback including both intrinsic & extrinsic.
