conversely, to slow down in order to be more accurate.
Thus, an increase in accuracy alone does not indicate improved skill; true skill acquisition
requires a systematic change in the learner’s speedaccuracy tradeoff function.
Unlike adaptation, which can occur
within a single experimental session, motor skill acquisition
can be achieved only through extended practice
and can take several days, weeks, or even years, depending
on the complexity of the task. Performance gains are
seen within-session (online effects) and between training
sessions (positive offline effects)
