We studied how subjects learned to make movements against unpredictable perturbations.
Twelve healthy human subjects made goal-directed reaching movements in the horizontal …

We studied the stability of changes in motor performance associated with adaptation to a
novel dynamic environment during goal-directed movements of the dominant arm. Eleven …

People tend to make straight and smooth hand movements when reaching for an object. These
trajectory features are resistant to perturbation, and both proprioceptive as well as visual …

We investigated the effects of trial-to-trial, random variation in environmental forces on the
motor adaptation of human subjects during reaching. Novel sequences of dynamic …

Benz EN, Hornby TG, Bode RK, Scheidt RA, Schmit BD. A physiologically based clinical
measure for spastic reflexes in spinal cord injury. Arch Phys Med Rehabil 2005;86:52-9. …

We examined control of the hand's trajectory (direction and shape) and final equilibrium
position in horizontal planar arm movements by quantifying transfer of learned visuomotor …

The issue of how the Euclidean properties of space are represented in the nervous system is
a main focus in the study of visual perception, but is equally relevant to motor learning. The …

We characterized how hemiparetic stroke survivors and neurologically intact individuals
adapt reaching movements to compensate for unpredictable environmental perturbations. We …

We studied reach adaptation to a 30 visuomotor rotation to determine whether augmented
error feedback can promote faster and more complete motor learning. Four groups of healthy …

Prior learning of a motor skill creates motor memories that can facilitate or interfere with
learning of new, but related, motor skills. One hypothesis of motor learning posits that for a …
