Action error and observation in aiming movements

Watching someone else perform can help us learn and/or alert us to errors. We are interested in how watching actions of others impacts on processes related to performance and learning. In this research study, you will be asked to reach towards targets on a touch screen computer and will also watch videos of someone else doing this task (ethics, H24-03388). We are looking for participants who are able to perform upper body movements and are right-handed. It is anticipated that the study will take approximately 60-80 minutes. A $20 honorarium will be provided upon completion of the study.
Please send us an email if you're interested (preferably a UBC email if you have one), with a phone number and we will send you a consent form with more information.
Please put “Aiming error observation” in the subject line of the email.
