Rescaling an acquired discrete aiming movement: Specific or general motor learning?

In this study we examined the ability of young adults to rescale a target-aiming movement to meet new spatial demands. Of interest was the role of response-produced visual feedback in the learning process, as well as the specificity/generalizability of motor learning. The analysis of both performance and kinematic data indicate that rather than becoming less dependent on visual response-produced feedback with practice, part of skill acquisition …
