Knowledge of Performance provides:

• A. Information about the outcome of the movement
• B. A summary of the practice session
• C. Visual cues
• D. Information about movement characteristics that led to the performance outcome

Answer: (D)

Knowledge of Performance is feedback about how the movement was carried out—the movement characteristics that produced the outcome. It describes technique, form, timing, sequencing, and coordination, showing the specific motor patterns that led to the result. This helps a performer adjust the underlying movements to improve future performance, not just know whether the attempt was successful. By contrast, information about the outcome (whether the goal was achieved) is Knowledge of Results, a practice session summary isn’t focused on movement details, and while visual cues can point to certain aspects of performance, KP centers on the actual movement characteristics that led to the outcome.
