Drag and drop the boxes into the correct order.

Rearrange the steps involved in the sporting example of Whiting's information processing model in the correct order.

Sensory organs: They are faced with a range of stimuli, all of which are taken in by receptors, e.g. the movement of the ball and opposition, commands of teammates and spatial awareness of their own position.
Feedback data: The performer then evaluates the success of their performance to consider modifying the response in future, e.g. the defending player might call to their teammate earlier when they see the gap between them opening up.
Muscular system output data: As a result, movement occurs, e.g. the defending player takes a step to their side and makes the tackle on the sniping player.
Perceptual mechanism: The information gathered is processed using perception and ensuring that only the relevant stimuli are attended to via selective attention, e.g. the defending rugby player will ignore the dummy runs and calls of opponents and focus on both the movement of the ball and the player they are marking.
Display: A rugby player will scan and receive information from the environment that they find themselves in, e.g. the rugby pitch, including fellow and opposition players.
Effector mechanism: Once the decision has been made, an electrical impulse is sent from the central nervous system to the muscle via motor neurons, e.g. to anticipate the sniping run.
Translatory mechanism: A decision will be made based on the comparison of available information against previous experience, e.g. the defending player understands that the opponent might attempt a line break as this has happened before when there's been a wide gap between themselves and their teammate.

This is your 1^st attempt! The marking algorithm gives more marks for getting the right order first time.
