Contemporary handwriting research has focused on skilled performance, the developing
capabilities of children, atypical development, the effectiveness of various letter forms …

This article describes a theory of the computations underlying the selection of coordinated
motion patterns, especially in reaching tasks. The central idea is that when a spatial target is …

The letter substitution errors of 2 dysgraphic subjects who, despite relatively intact oral
spelling, made well-formed letter substitution errors in written spelling, were studied. Many of …

The purpose of the study was to understand how force is controlled for impact movements
such as golf putting. Expert players (10) and control subjects (10) executed a putt as …

This paper presents a handwriting generation model that takes advantage of the asymptotic
impulse response of neuromuscular networks to produce and control complex two …

Much sensory-motor behavior develops through imitation, as during the learning of
handwriting by children. Such complex sequential acts are broken down into distinct motor …

Objectives: Previous research suggested that people with Parkinson's disease are able to
increase handwriting stroke size up to 1.5 cm without an increase of stroke duration; …

Bridging the gap between theory and practice, this volume examines the essential
neuroscientific principles underlying normal and pathological hand motor control and …

The present study investigates intrinsic preferences and tendencies in coordination of the
wrist and finger movements during handwriting-like tasks. Movement of the inkless pen tip in …

The variability observed in handwriting patterns is analyzed from the perspective of
integrating the resulting motor control knowledge in the design of more powerful handwriting …
