The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of contextual interference CI by extending previous laboratory and field research with athlete children through the acquisition and transfer phases. Male children (n=60- 9-12 years) were chosen randomly from Eastern Province Clubs. They were assigned to complete blocked, random, or serial practice groups.
Analysis of variance with repeated measures MANOVA indicated that, the results support the notion that acquisition under blocked practice facilitates learning. There were significant differences in acquisition phase, children under blocked practice demonstrated greater mean scores and less variability than the children under random and serial practice groups. During the transfer phase, children showed no significant differences in performance among the three different practices .
This is contradictory to contextual interference effects but supports the hypothesis of this study; that the performance in sport settings is totally different from laboratory and simple movement skill in field research. Thus, the present results support the suggestions by Battig, 1979; Shea & Morgan , 1979 ; Almustafa, 1989; 1995;1996 , that enhance learning by following contextual interference effects, but not for children in the field with complex learning environment.
