Abstract

Learning by analogy offers numerous advantages to the basketball player, grouping a variety of information in a single rule. The objective is to analyze if learning by analogy produces an effect on performance and motor actions. Eighteen players participated. Four experimental conditions were designed with temporal and motor limitations and a combination of both. The variables related to space, collective and individual play are influenced by environmental conditions. Learning by analogy places a lower load on working memory resources, due to the reduction in the volume of verbal information processed.
