چکیده:
Introduction: Motor skills play an important role during life span, and older adults need to learn
or relearn these skills. The purpose of this study was to investigate how aging affects induction
of improved movement performance by motor training.
Methods: Serial Reaction Time Test (SRTT) was used to assess movement performance during
8 blocks of motor training. Participants were tested in two separate dates, 48 hours apart. First
session included 8 blocks of training (blocks 1-8) and second session comprised 2 blocks (blocks
9, 10).
Results: Analyses of data showed that reaction times in both online and offline learning were
significantly shorter in older adults compared to younger adults (P<0.001). Young adults
demonstrated both online and offline learning (P<0.001), but older adults only showed online
learning (P<0.001) without offline learning (P=0.24).
Discussion: The result of the current study provides evidence that the healthy older adults are
able to improve their performance with practice and learn motor skill successfully in the form
of online learning.
