Time course of changes in the long-latency feedback response parallels the fast process of short-term motor adaptation
Susan Coltman, Paul L. Gribble
Abstract
We investigated whether changes in the feedback stretch response were related to the proposed fast and slow processes of motor adaptation. We found that the long-latency component of the feedback stretch response was upregulated in the early stages of learning and the time course was correlated with the fast process. While some propose that the fast process reflects an explicit strategy, we argue instead that it may be a proxy for the feedback controller.
