Age-graded decrements in accuracies and maximum speed of fine motor movements
observed in numerous experimental studies have nurtured general factor explanations like …

We argue that 4 fundamental gestalt phenomena in perception apply to the control of motor
action. First, a motor gestalt, like a perceptual gestalt, is holistic in the sense that it is …

The aim of this study was to examine the influence of skill of expert triple jumpers on the

This article takes an information processing perspective to review current understanding of
brain mechanisms of human voluntary timing. Theoretical accounts of timing of the …

Reaction time (RT) prior to speech articulation increased as a function of response
complexity. The RT findings formed 2 patterns, each of which was a different Response …

Theoretical and experimental issues for our understanding of the timing of motor acts are
reviewed, contrasting stochastic and dynamic timing models. It is argued that the theory of …

A stochastic model for synchronization with a metronome is analyzed which generalizes
Wing and Kristofferson's (1973a, 1973b) two-level model for tapping. The model includes a …

This paper introduces a conceptual framework for the systematic analysis of multitasking
behavior, and the corresponding degree of preference for doing multiple activities …

This chapter sketches the scientific concepts of ability, expertise, and their relationship to
adult development. It then addresses age-related changes in cognitive processes and their …
