TDCS effects on pointing task learning in young and old adults.

Author(s): Kaminski E, Engelhardt M, Hoff M, Steele C, A Villringer, Ragert P

Skill increase in motor performance can be defined as explicitly measuring task success but also via more implicit measures of movement kinematics. Even though these measures are often related, there is evidence that they represent distinct concepts of lear...
