The problem of reversals in assessing implicit sequence learning with serial reaction time tasks

Implicit Motor Learning after Unilateral Stroke Using Serial Reaction Time Task

Introduction: Motor skills and learning after stroke are of a great importance. This study aimed at studying implicit learning in unilateral stroke patients using affected hand and comparison with normal subjects. Methods: A serial reaction time task by using a software was applied for studying implicit motor learning in 15 stroke patients and 15 matched normal subjects. In this task 4 squar...

Implicit Learning of Serial Reaction Time Tasks: Connectionist vs. Symbolic Models

The serial reaction time task: implicit motor skill learning?

Since its development 20 years ago, the serial reaction time task (SRTT) has gone from being a tool used by psychologists (Nissen and Bullemer, 1987) to one that, in the last few years, has been embraced by a wider community (Fig. 1). Embedded within this task is a sequence, a connected series of events, that engages processes supporting the temporal organization of behavior, the formation of h...

Implicit and Explicit Knowledge in the Serial Reaction Time Task

Neurophysiology of implicit timing in serial choice reaction-time performance.

Neural representations of time for the judgment of temporal durations are reflected in electroencephalographic (EEG) slow brain potentials, as established in time production and perception tasks. Here, we investigated whether anticipatory processes in reaction-time procedures are governed by similar mechanisms of interval timing. We used a choice reaction task with two different, temporally reg...
