“…Daou, Buchanan et al observed having learners practice and study a motor skill with the expectation of teaching it to another person enhanced skill learning in comparison to having learners practice and study a skill with the expectation of being tested, and this effect has been replicated several times ( Daou, Hutchison et al, 2019 ; Daou, Lohse, & Miller, 2016 ; Daou, Lohse, & Miller, 2018 ; Daou, Rhoads, Jacobs, Lohse, & Miller, 2019 ). Although research has failed to reveal the mechanisms underlying the learning benefit of expecting to teach, studies have consistently shown that the learning advantage occurs concomitant to large gains in declarative knowledge about the learned skill ( Daou, Buchanan et al, 2016 ; Daou et al, 2018 ; Daou, Hutchison et al, 2019 ; Daou, Lohse et al, 2016 ; Daou, Rhoads et al, 2019 ). As motor skills acquired with large gains in declarative knowledge are highly susceptible to decrement under psychological pressure ( Lam, Maxwell, & Masters, 2009a , 2009b ; Hardy, Mullen, & Jones, 1996 ; Koedijker, Oudejans, & Beek, 2007 ; Liao & Masters, 2001 ; Masters, 1992 ), it was unsurprising that Daou, Hutchison, et al (2019) revealed that the expecting to teach benefit vanished under psychological pressure, due to participants who practiced with the expectation of teaching ‘choking’ in a high-pressure posttest.…”
