“…We chose therefore to investigate intermanual transfer to the left hand of the motor skills acquired while young and older adults learn to perform with their right hand a novel myoelectric-controlled interface task comprising two sequentially linked action components (Graziadio et al, 2014;Nazarpour, Barnard, & Jackson, 2012;Radhakrishnan, Baker, & Jackson, 2008). The first component requires feedforward motor learning, when predominantly unilateral activation of motor networks in the young adults and bilateral activation in the elderly has been demonstrated across a range of visuomotor tasks involving hand muscles and using a range of experimental techniques (Mattay et al, 2002;Sailer et al, 2000;Seidler, Noll, & Thiers, 2004;Ward & Frackowiak, 2003;Wu & Hallett, 2005;Yordanova et al, 2004); the second component requires feedback learning, when bilateral activation of motor networks in both age groups has been consistently demonstrated (Grafton, Schmitt, Van Horn, & Diedrichsen, 2008;Noble, Eng, Kokotilo, & Boyd, 2011;Ullsperger, Harsay, Wessel, & Ridderinkhof, 2010).…”
