DESCRIPTION:K. Anders Ericsson\, Ph.D.\, Florida State University  'Making 
 of Excellence through Deliberate Practice: What can we Learn from the Trai
 ning of Chess Masters\, Elite Athletes and Musicians?'  Recent research in
  many domains of expertise\, such as chess\, music\, medicine\, and sports
 \, shows that most forms of experience have surprisingly limited benefits 
 for increasing performance. In contrast\, research on expert performance d
 emonstrates that some types of experience\, such as focused appropriate tr
 aining activities--deliberate practice--can dramatically change the human 
 body (enlargement of hearts and arteries and growth of capillaries) and br
 ain (myelinization and blood supply of nerve fibers)\, and over extended t
 ime modify virtually all characteristics relevant to superior performance\
 , with the exception of body size and height. The acquisition of expert an
 d elite performance involves a successive development of increasingly refi
 ned mental mechanisms that afford experts increased control over their per
 formance. A theoretical analysis of the full range of elite performers’ le
 arning\, skill acquisition\, and physiological adaptations is now providin
 g the foundation for a scientifically-based account of the human potential
  that is attainable through optimal development and deliberate practice.
