Previous studies have suggested that a gradually introduced visuomotor discrepancy results in more complete visuomotor adaptation for goal-directed reaching than a suddenly introduced one. However, it is unclear what mechanism allows such a complete adaptation. Here, we investigated the computational mechanism of the visuomotor adaptation for suddenly or gradually introduced visuomotor discrepancy. Subjects practiced a fast center-out reaching with the hand position cursor rotated around the start position. One group of subjects was suddenly exposed to the 60 deg cursor rotation, and that rotation was kept throughout the training. After the training, approximate straight hand trajectory was observed with an elongated reaction time. On the other hand, another group of subjects, who were exposed to the cursor rotations updated incrementally up to 60 deg, generated the curved trajectory without changes in the reaction time after the training. When the hand cursor was turned off, the reaching endpoint was away from the target position. Additionally, the analysis of the response to the visual perturbation reveals that the visual feedback gain increased after the training. Taken together, these results suggest that, in the visuomotor rotation task, the motor planning process adapts to reduce the sudden large error, and that the motor execution process, including the visual feedback controller, adapts to reduce the small error without changes in the motor planning process. |
