Research Abstract |
Appropriate association between motor command and the resultant movement error is crucial for motor learning, but here a system identification technique revealed that such temporal association degraded in rhythmic movements : Movement errors in more than one past trials influenced or even interfered the correction of motor command. We confirmed a counterintuitive prediction that tntermittent rather than continuous visual error feedback boosted the visuomotor learning performance by removing the harmful effect.
