Summary
Recalibration, the brain
Area of Science:
- Motor Control
- Human Movement Science
- Neuroscience
Background:
- Skilled actions rely on a calibrated perceptual-motor system.
- Changes in perception or action necessitate recalibration.
- Examples include athletes adjusting to fatigue.
Purpose of the Study:
- Systematically review how perceptual-motor recalibration is measured.
- Evaluate existing literature on recalibration processes.
- Analyze experimental methods for studying recalibration.
Main Methods:
- Systematic screening of five databases for relevant literature.
- Inclusion of 91 experiments applying disturbances to perceptual-motor systems.
- Analysis of studies reporting immediate and post-recalibration effects.
Main Results:
- Experiments disturbed either perception or action.
- Both direct and indirect measures of recalibration were employed.
- Active exploration facilitated fast recalibration only with available information.
Conclusions:
- Recalibration measurement methods vary.
- Active exploration's role in fast recalibration is information-dependent.
- Future research should explore information sources and skill expertise in recalibration.
