Levels of Psychomotor Domain

Perception The ability to use sensory cues to guide motor activity. This ranges from

sensory stimulation, through cue selection, to translation.

Examples:

Color Listen Note

Describe Look Observe

Find Measure Record

SetReadiness to act. It includes mental, physical, and

emotional sets. These three sets are dispositions that predetermine a person's response to different situations (sometimes called mindsets)

Guided Response

The early stages in learning a complex skill that includes imitation and trial and error. Adequacy of performance is achieved by practicing.

Examples:

Assemble Experiment Measure

Connect Handle Relate

Convert Manipulate Use

MechanismThis is the intermediate stage in learning a complex skill. Learned

responses have become habitual and the movements can be performed with some confidence and proficiency.

Examples:Devise Manipulate Spell out

Execute Operate Use

Install Perform

Complex Overt Response

The skillful performance of motor acts that involve complex movement patterns. Proficiency is indicated by a quick, accurate, and highly coordinated performance, requiring a minimum of energy.

This category includes performing without hesitation, and automatic performance. For example, players are often utter sounds of satisfaction or expletives as soon as they hit a tennis ball or throw a football, because they can tell by the feel of the act what the result will produce.

Examples: Assemble Convert Measure

Conduct Label Use

Connect Match

Adaptation Skills are well developed and the individual can modify

movement patterns to fit special requirement.

Examples: Alter Move Shift

Change Refine Shove

Modify Revise Sift

Origination

Creating new movement patterns to fit a particular situation or specific problem. Learning outcomes emphasize creativity based upon highly developed skills.

Examples:Create Recite and count Remember and apply

Discard and substitute Recall and use Repair and use

Recycle and use Select and discard Recapitulate
