Effect of blocked and random practice schedule variations on acquisition and retention of a pattern drawing task
(1998)The contextual interference (CI) effect refers to the phenomenon that practice organised according to a random schedule appears to negatively affect acquisition, while retention performance is facilitated. Previous ... -
Get on the good foot : do pedal asymmetries exist in the sprint start response?
(2005)The study of pedal asymmetries examines the differences in reaction time and movement time between the foot/hemisphere systems in humans. Although asymmetries have been examined using pointing movements research has yet ... -

Walk, stop, search : the effect of simulated motion on visual attention
(2006)Responses in covert orienting of visual attention tasks (COVAT) produce a biphasic pattern of results. When the stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) is less than 300 ms, reaction times (RTs) to cued targets are faster than ...
