Common workspace and the MT. Schematic of the workspace used in both the manual and RTs. This board was placed on the participant’s lap during both tasks. In the MT, participants manually reached or grasped objects placed on the workspace. However, during the RT, only the response pad was used. MT: Each trial began with a 500-msec visual instructional cue (“Grasp” or “Reach”). This was followed by a variable duration delay period (3000–4000 msec). For analysis purposes, the premovement phase was defined as the first 3500 msec of the trial, which included the 500-msec instructional cue and the first 3000 msec of the following delay period. Onset of the live video display of the workspace served as the movement cue. The execution phase consisted of the entire 4500-msec period during which participants received visual feedback.
