The effectiveness of broad and narrow bandwidth feedback for learning a 2-segment timing task was tested over short-term (10-min.) and longer-term (2-day) retention intervals. The main finding was that bandwidth feedback groups deteriorated in accuracy across the retention tests, raising questions about the effectiveness of bandwidth feedback for longer-term learning.
