Long-term modifications in motor cortical dynamics induced by intensive practice.

5 Oct 2009 The planning of goal-directed movements requires sensory, temporal, and contextual information to be combined. Sensorimotor functions are embedded in large neuronal networks, but it is unclear how networks organize their activity in space and time ... Read more...

Bimodal audio-visual training enhances auditory adaptation process.

21 Sep 2009 Effects of auditory training with bimodal audio-visual stimuli on monomodal aural speech intelligibility were examined in individuals with normal hearing using highly degraded noise-vocoded speech sound. Visual cue simultaneously presented with ... Read more...

Design of experiments with multiple independent variables: a resource management perspective on complete and reduced factorial designs.

30 Aug 2009 An investigator who plans to conduct an experiment with multiple independent variables must decide whether to use a complete or reduced factorial design. This article advocates a resource management perspective on making this decision, in which the ... Read more...
