Background: The benefits of variable practice in motor learning have been traditionally
explained by the increased demand for memory processes induced by trial-to-trial changes …

Although the practice schedule and variation in incidental context have been investigated
together, it is not clear whether just variation in incidental context can beneficiate motor …

Differences in motor learning can be partially explained by differences in genotype. The
catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) Val158Met polymorphism regulates the dopamine …

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a safe and non-invasive cerebral stimulation
technique (Nitsche & Paulus, 2000), involving the application of low-intensity currents using …

Although the importance of practice has been evidenced in early studies of cross-limb
transfer, the association between cross-limb transfer and practice organization remains …

Introduction: Skill acquisition requires practice to stimulate neuroplasticity. Changes in
inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmitters, such as respectively gamma-aminobutyric acid …

For over 40 years, the contextual interference effect in motor learning has been investigated.
While the difference between levels of contextual interference experienced under blocked …
