Exploring non-task-related variability as an aid to motor skill acquisition, retention, and transfer

In two experiments, we tested whether non-task related variability, in the form of randomly administered mechanical perturbations during practice, would facilitate the acquisition of a novel two-handed coordination movement. There is considerable evidence in the motor learning literature showing tha...
