From: Role of working memory in interlimb generalization of newly learned skills
In Exp-1 (Long-Immediate), engaging in working memory or control task after long skill training does not prevent immediate interlimb generalization. (a) Movement trajectories to the five targets (blue circle) of first and last bin of skill training and generalization sessions, respectively are shown for one participant from each group (working memory in purple, control in green). Note that as compared to the first bin of training, position of square (hand position at 650 ms) is close to the target on all other bins, indicating improved performance by the end of training and subsequent generalization of that performance to the untrained arm in participants from both groups. (b) Change in mean motor error during the training and generalization sessions for the working memory (N = 16) and control group (N = 16). Shaded regions represent standard error (SE). (c) Bar plots comparing motor errors on first, last bins of training and first bin of generalization for the control (left side) and working memory (right side) groups are shown. Lines represent individual participants. Error bars represent SE.
