DOI: 10.1007/s00221-018-5388-y
Abstract: A previous study reported that movement directions adapt much better to 60° target displacements (double steps) when target displacements are introduced incrementally and not abruptly. The present study tested whether incremental adaptation to 60° discordances… read more here.

Executive Functions and Visual-Spatial Skills Predict Mathematical Achievement: Asymmetrical Associations Across Age
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Psychological Research"
DOI: 10.1007/s00426-019-01249-4
Abstract: Children’s mathematical achievement depends on their domain-specific abilities and their domain-general skills such as executive functions (EFs) and visual-spatial skills (VSS). Research indicates that these two domain-general skills predict mathematical achievement. However, it is unclear… read more here.
