Fitts’ Law in early postural adjustments [PDF]
Neuroscience, 2013 We tested a hypothesis that the classical relation between movement time and index of difficulty (ID) in quick pointing action (Fitts' Law) reflects processes at the level of motor planning. Healthy subjects stood on a force platform and performed quick and accurate hand movements into targets of different size located at two distances.

Hammering Does Not Fit Fitts' Law [PDF]
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2017 While movement is essential to human wellbeing, we are still unable to reproduce the deftness and robustness of human movement in automatons or completely restore function to individuals with many types of motor impairment. To better understand how the human nervous system plans and controls movements, neuromechanists employ simple tasks such as upper ...

Towards an analysis of academic weblogs [PDF]
, 2006 This paper analyses both the communicative purposes and formal linguistic features of academic weblogs. An initial analysis of 496 weblogs in use within tertiary level institutions was reduced to an in-depth analysis of 39 academic weblogs (a corpus of ...

Perceived Difficulty in a Fitts Task [PDF]
, 2011 This study provided a detailed investigation of perceived difficulty (PD) in a Fitts task. The Fitts task has been used to study Fitts\u27s law, which shows that movement time (MT) is related to the information constraints of the movement (Fitts\u27s ...

Using Fitts' Law to Detect Intentional Misrepresentation [PDF]
Journal of Motor Behavior, 2015 In paralympic classification, tests of impaired coordination (e.g., reciprocal tapping tasks) are effort dependent and therefore susceptible to intentional misrepresentation of abilities (IM)-deliberate exaggeration of impairment severity. The authors investigated whether reciprocal tapping tasks performed submaximally could be differentiated from ...

Design and Development of a Mobile-based Caretaking System for the Elderly People in Thailand: A Design Thinking Approach [PDF]
, 2023 As the ageing population has become a global phenomenon in the past few decades, it has brought several issues to many countries (e.g., aged care). Thailand has one of the highest ageing populations in the region, which has challenged society to find a ...

Fitts’ Law is modulated by movement history [PDF]
Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2017 Fitts' Law is one of the most robust and well-studied principles in psychology. It holds that movement time (MT) for target-directed aiming movements increases as a function of target distance and decreases as a function of target width. The purpose of this study was to determine whether Fitts' Law is affected not only by the demands of the target on ...

Schrodinger Wave Equation for Simple Harmonic Oscillator [PDF]
, 2023 In physics, harmonic motion is among the most representative types of motion. A simple harmonic oscillator is often the source of any vibration with a restoring force proportional to Hooke’s law.

Examining the equivalence between imagery and execution - Do imagined and executed movements code relative environmental features? [PDF]
, 2019 Imagined actions engage some of the same neural substrates and related sensorimotor codes as executed actions. The equivalency between imagined and executed actions has been frequently demonstrated by the mental and physical chronometry of movements ...
