Previous studies have shown that bimanual coordination learning is more resistant to the removal of augmented feedback when acquired with auditory than with visual channel. However, it is unclear whether this differential "guidance effect" between feedback modalities is due to enhanced sensorimotor integration via the non-dominant auditory channel or strengthened linkage to kinesthetic informat...

Perceptual and Attentional Constraints on 1:1 Bimanual Coordination. (May 2010) Attila J. Kovacs, B.S., Transilvania University; M.Ed., Wayne State University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Charles H. Shea Two experiments were conducted in an attempt to further the understanding of how previously identified intrinsic constraints and perceptual factors interact in influencing the learning and ...

Using more than one limb to perform functional, goal-directed actions is arguably one of the most important abilities that human beings possess. In many everyday tasks, the hands, in particular, must be used to accomplish all manner of goals. From buttoning a shirt to opening a jam jar and driving to work, good bimanual coordination is of great utility. In addition to the tasks mentioned above,...

the aim of the present study was to investigate the manipulation of senses and speed on the performance of bimanual dynamic coordination. thus, 15 physical education students of shahid beheshti university with age range of 18-25 years performed in-phase and anti-phase patterns from slow to fast speed in five different sensory conditions. to investigate two motor patterns anova with repeated mea...
