“…The dependency of motor adaptation on action-effect delay reported in this study is similar to those observed in rhythmic tapping experiments (Chase et al, 1959, 1961; Chase, Rapin, Gilden, Sutton, & Guilfoyle, 1961; Finney & Warren, 2002; Karlovich & Graham, 1966, 1967; Ruhm & Cooper, 1963, 1964). Whereas in those studies force differences between conditions with immediate and delayed feedback could also be attributed to interference between different information sources (action execution, tactile feedback, and auditory feedback), in the current study, potential contributions of similar interference effects can be considered insignificant, and the observed force differences can be attributed to auditory action effects losing their feedback-function with increasing action-tone delay.…”

For quick ballistic movements the possibility of making online adjustments is limited. However, when the same action (e.g., pressing a button) is repeated multiple times, trial-by-trial adjustments are possible: Previous studies found that participants utilized auditory effects as feedback to optimize the applied force for such tone eliciting actions. In the current study, it was examined whether this also occurred if a delay was inserted between the action and its auditory effect. In 2 experiments, participants applied force impulses to a force-sensitive resistor in a self-paced schedule. Action-effect delay was manipulated between experimental blocks in the 0- to 1,600-ms range. The level of motor adaptation diminished as a function of action-effect delay, with no adaptation observable for delays longer than 200 ms, which indicates that action-effect contingency in itself is not sufficient to warrant that sensory effects will be useful for action control. A third experiment also showed that the observed temporal constraint was not absolute: Adaptation at 200-ms delay was stronger in a group of participants who were exposed to 400-ms action-tone delays before testing, than in a group exposed to a 0-ms action-tone delay, suggesting that action-effect-related motor adaptation is influenced by prior experience.

“…When auditory feedback is delayed with respect to onset timing or altered with respect to feedback content, production suffers. Such disruptive effects of AAF have been observed across many tasks, including tapping (Finney & Warren, 2002; Ruhm & Cooper, 1963), clapping and whistling (Kalmus, Denes, & Fry, 1955), speech (Black, 1951; Fairbanks, 1955; Lee, 1950; MacKay, 1968; Yates, 1963), and music (Finney, 1997; Gates & Bradshaw, 1974; Gates, Bradshaw, & Nettleton, 1974; Havlicek, 1968; Pfordresher, 2003). Speech and singing are particularly interesting as both tasks involve using the same peripheral motor and perceptual systems, thereby providing an opportunity to determine whether auditory feedback is used to coordinate with actions similarly across domains.…”

When singing a melody or producing sentences, we take for granted the fact that the sounds we create (auditory feedback) match the intended consequences of our actions. The importance of these perception/action matches to production is illustrated by the detrimental effects of altered auditory feedback (AAF). Previous research in the domain of music has shown that when AAF leads to asynchronies between perception and action, timing of production is disrupted but accuracy of sequencing is not. On the other hand, AAF manipulations of pitch disrupt sequencing but not timing. Such dissociative effects, as well as other findings, suggest that sensitivity to AAF may be based on hierarchical organization of sequences. In the current research we examined whether similar effects are found for the production of speech, for which syllables rather than pitches may constitute content units. In the first experiment, participants either sang melodies or spoke sequences of nonsense syllables. In the second experiment, the tasks were combined such that participants sang syllable sequences. Production in both experiments was accompanied by either normal, asynchronous, or content altered auditory feedback. Across experiments, effects of AAF on the accuracy of sequencing were similar in speaking and singing tasks, and in all cases reflected the dissociative effects described earlier. For timing of production, however, previous results were only found when participants sang sequences that did not have varying syllabic content. These results suggest that sensitivity to timing exists at multiple hierarchical levels, particularly at the syllable and phonetic levels.
