Motor learning encompasses a wide range of phenomena, ranging from relatively low-level
mechanisms for maintaining calibration of our movements, to making high-level cognitive …

Motor learning is often viewed as a unitary process that operates outside of conscious
awareness. This perspective has led to the development of sophisticated models designed …

Habits are commonly conceptualized as learned associations whereby a stimulus triggers
an associated response,–. We propose that habits may be better understood as a process …

Sensorimotor learning is supported by at least two parallel systems: a strategic process that
benefits from explicit knowledge and an implicit process that adapts subconsciously. How do …

Despite increasing interest in the role of reward in motor learning, the underlying
mechanisms remain ill defined. In particular, the contribution of explicit processes to reward …

Visuomotor rotations are frequently used to study the different processes underlying motor
adaptation. Explicit aiming strategies and implicit recalibration are two of these processes …

During extended motor adaptation, learning appears to saturate despite persistence of
residual errors. This adaptation limit is not fixed but varies with perturbation variance; when …

Visuomotor adaptation has one of the oldest experimental histories in psychology and
neuroscience, yet its precise nature has always been a topic of debate. Here we offer a …

Current theories suggest that an error-driven learning process updates trial-by-trial to
facilitate motor adaptation. How this process interacts with motor cortical preparatory activity …

Actions often require the selection of a specific goal amongst a range of possibilities, like
when a softball player must precisely position her glove to field a fast-approaching ground …
