Recent findings have demonstrated that reward feedback alone can drive motor learning.
However, it is not yet clear whether reward feedback alone can lead to learning when a …

Despite increasing interest in the role of reward in motor learning, the underlying
mechanisms remain ill defined. In particular, the contribution of explicit processes to reward …

Reward and punishment have long been recognized as potent modulators of human
behavior. Although reinforcement learning is a significant motor learning process, the exact …

Besides relying heavily on sensory and reinforcement feedback, motor skill learning may
also depend on the level of motivation experienced during training. Yet, how motivation by …

At least two distinct processes have been identified by which motor commands are adapted
according to movement-related feedback: reward-based learning and sensory error-based …

A common assumption regarding error-based motor learning (motor adaptation) in humans
is that its underlying mechanism is automatic and insensitive to reward-or punishment …

Background Reward-based feedback given during motor learning has been shown to
improve the retention of the behaviour being acquired. Interestingly, applying transcranial …

The human motor system rapidly adapts to systematic perturbations but the adapted
behavior seems to be forgotten equally rapidly. The reason for this forgetting is unclear, as is …

Reward has a remarkable ability to invigorate motor behavior, enabling individuals to select
and execute actions with greater precision and speed. However, if reward is to be exploited …

Visuomotor adaptation involves multiple processes such as explicit learning, implicit
learning from sensory prediction errors, and model-free mechanisms like use-dependent …
