Reward has a remarkable ability to invigorate motor behavior, enabling individuals to select
and execute actions with greater precision and speed. However, if reward is to be exploited …

Motor learning encompasses a broad set of phenomena that requires a diverse set of
experimental paradigms. However, excessive variation in tasks across studies creates …

Perturbations of sensory feedback evoke sensory prediction errors (discrepancies between
predicted and actual sensory outcomes of movements), and reward prediction errors …

Reward and punishment have long been recognized as potent modulators of human
behavior. Although reinforcement learning is a significant motor learning process, the exact …

Recent laboratory findings have demonstrated that, when imposed separately, punishment
and reward have different effects on motor learning. In real-world applications, however …

The question of whether and how aging affects humans' visuomotor adaptation remains
controversial. This study investigates how the effect of aging on visuomotor adaptation is …

Learning from error is often a slow process. In machine learning, the learning rate depends
on a loss function that specifies a cost for error. Here, we hypothesized that during motor …

Visuomotor adaptation involves multiple processes such as explicit learning, implicit
learning from sensory prediction errors, and model-free mechanisms like use-dependent …

Monetary rewards and punishments enhance motor performance and are associated with
corticospinal excitability (CSE) increases within the motor cortex (M1) during movement …

This study investigated the generalized effects of positive feedback (PF) versus negative
feedback (NF) during training on performance and sense of agency for a reach-to-touch task …
