Abstract

A trial-by-trial analysis was used to systematically examine the influence of switching visual conditions on visual feedback utilization for a manual aiming movement. In experiment one, vision was randomly manipulated from trial to trial with no more than four consecutive trials in the same visual condition. In experiment two, participants were provided with certainty of visual feedback availability prior to every trial. Results of both studies revealed that movement endpoint variability was most associated with visual feedback availability on the previous trial. Furthermore, correlation analyses comparing movement trajectory at 25, 50 and 75% with movement end (i.e. 100%) revealed that the efficiency of online corrections also depends on the availability of visual feedback on the previous trial. These results suggest that the accuracy of an aiming movement is highly dependent on processing of offline visual information from the preceding trial.
