Between-trial inhibition and facilitation in goal-directed aiming: manual and spatial asymmetries

Three experiments were conducted with right-handed participants to examine between-trial inhibition and facilitation effects in goal-directed aiming. Participants were required to execute rapid left-hand or right-hand aiming movements upon illumination of a target light in left or right space. Thus, from trial to trial, participants executed movements to either the same target location or a different target location with the either same hand or …
