Lage, Guilherme M.; Faria, Larissa O.; Ambrósio, Natália F. A.; Borges, Athos M. P.; Apolinário-Souza, Tércio – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2022
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 and random practice are well established, the difference in the levels of contextual interference experienced under serial and random practice is still ambiguous.…

Sharma, Shiv K.; Carew, Thomas J. – Learning & Memory, 2004
Synaptic plasticity is thought to contribute to memory formation. Serotonin-induced facilitation of sensory-motor (SN-MN) synapses in "Aplysia" is an extensively studied cellular analog of memory for sensitization. Serotonin, a modulatory neurotransmitter, is released in the CNS during sensitization training, and induces three temporally and…

Stelmach, George E. – 1978
The role of perceptual organization in motor learning is discussed, the literature is reviewed, and research findings are summarized. Measurement problems are discussed, including observations about motor skill learning. Four experiments are described which compare organized and random movement sequences. It is shown that organization (whether…
