Motor learning encompasses a wide range of phenomena, ranging from relatively low-level
mechanisms for maintaining calibration of our movements, to making high-level cognitive …

Issues in the cognitive representation and control of action are broached from the
perspective of action identification theory. This theory holds that any action can be identified …

Due largely to developments made in artificial intelligence and cognitive psychology during
the past two decades, expertise has become an important subject for scholarly …

Recent studies have shown that frontoparietal cortices and interconnecting regions in the
basal ganglia and the cerebellum are related to motor skill learning. We propose that motor …

In The Algebraic Mind, Gary Marcus attempts to integrate two theories about how the mind
works, one that says that the mind is a computer-like manipulator of symbols, and another …

To gain insight into the internal representation of temporal patterns, we studied the
perception and reproduction of tone sequences in which only the tone-onset intervals were …

Rapid execution of motor sequences is believed to depend on fusing movement elements
into cohesive units that are executed holistically. We sought to determine the contribution of …

When learning a new motor sequence, we must execute the correct order of movements
while simultaneously optimizing sensorimotor parameters such as trajectory, timing, velocity …

Learning motor skills evolves from the effortful selection of single movement elements to
their combined fast and accurate production. We review recent trends in the study of skill …
