This study shows that non-human primates adjust both feedforward and feedback control of arm dynamics when intersegmental dynamics are altered, as evidenced by changes in muscle activity and kinematic aftereffects.

This study demonstrates bidirectional transfer between feedforward and feedback motor control during learning, showing that feedback learning influences feedforward control.

This study shows that explicit feedback and instructions do not significantly enhance learning of shoulder muscle activity reduction after shoulder fixation.

This paper investigates whether learning to reduce shoulder muscle activity after shoulder fixation generalizes to new movement conditions and finds partial generalization across some parameters but not others.

This study shows that sensing an object slipping in the hand triggers rapid shoulder responses, which are modulated by slip direction and speed but not distance.

The paper shows that feedforward and feedback control share an internal model of arm dynamics by demonstrating learning transfer between control mechanisms when intersegmental dynamics are altered.

The paper shows the nervous system predicts and compensates for intersegmental dynamics across shoulder, elbow, and wrist joints during reaching and reflexive movements.
