In researches to measure the effectiveness of self-control feedback Researchers were more interested in the number of feedback and decision about when to get feedback has been less attention. Since the factor of choice and not the amount of choice feedback to the learner was the mechanism underlying motor learning in self-controlled context. The purpose of this study was investigating the effect of self- control feedback on the learning of throwing with one-hand with use of yoked self- control group. Forty five male students among university students of Shahid Beheshti University With the age range18 to 28, years voluntary participated in this study and were randomly divided into 3 groups: self-control, traditional yoked and yoked self control. Task was throwing sand bags with non-dominant hand. Subjects after pretest participated in acquisition phase (180 acquisition trails as 3 sessions, each session 3 blocks of 20 attempts) and 24 hours after the end of the acquisition phase, in retention tests and 5 min after the retention test, participated in the transfer. Data was analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Bonferroni post hoc test. Results showed that all groups had significant improvements in acquisition phase. Moreover, According to the retention and transfer tests results, yoked self - control group showed significantly more learning compare with self-control (p=0.001) and traditional yoked groups (p=0.001). Finding shows that self-control condition are beneficial for motor skills learning. In addition, in learning motor skill, Time ‘select the feedback received by the participants is more important than the number of received feedback.
