Children are suboptimal in adapting motor exploration to task dimensionality during motor learning
Published in Neuroscience Letters, 2022
This research demonstrates that children show limited exploration compared to adults when learning motor tasks, particularly in tasks requiring upper body movements to control a 2D cursor. The findings have important implications for understanding developmental differences in motor learning strategies and designing age-appropriate motor training programs.
