Integrated and independent learning of hand-related constituent sequences.

29 Jun 2009 In almost all daily activities fingers of both hands are used in coordinated succession. The present experiments explored whether learning in such tasks pertains not only to the overall sequence spanning both hands but also to the constituent ... Read more...

Transfer effects of practice for simple alternating movements.

29 Jun 2009 In studies on transfer of practice effects, researchers use simple or complex movements that involve a significant cognitive element. In the present study, the authors studied intermanual and intramanual transfer of practice with a task that can be ... Read more...

Learning and generalization of time production in humans: rules of transfer across modalities and interval durations.

17 Jun 2009 This article investigated both the ability of naive human subjects to learn interval production, as well as the properties of learning generalization across modalities and interval durations that varied systematically from the over-trained interval. ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Transfer (Psychology)'

Definition: Change in learning in one situation due to prior learning in another situation. The transfer can be positive (with second learning improved by first) or negative (where the reverse holds).
