An investigation of the role of tuning in the organization of voluntary movements
Description:
This study was undertaken to determine the role of feedforward tuning in the organization of a voluntary movement. Right-handed male college students (N = 12) volunteered to participate in the study. A finger flexion/extension choice... It was predicted that the one limb/two choice condition would prohibit pre response biasing of the agonist/antagonist relationship of the response finger because the agonist/antagonist relationship of the muscles involved could not be... A 3 x 3 x 2 x 3 x 4 ANOVA was conducted on the data collected in a complete within-subjects design. The factors were: (a) blocks, (b) movement combinations, (c) movement directions, (d) phases, and (e) fingers. The analysis revealed a... This analysis revealed one significant main effect for phases which was indicative of an increased state of readiness during the anticipation phase. In addition, a significant direction x phases interaction indicated a biasing of the... A separate 3 x 3 ANOVA was conducted on the reaction time data. The factors in this analysis were: (a) movement combinations, and (b) trial blocks. The analysis revealed a movement combinations main effect.
