Article Synopsis
- The study explores how executing a reach action can be influenced by keeping another action plan in working memory (WM), specifically focusing on the effects of overlapping actions.
- It was found that when reach responses are automatic, they can benefit from partial repetition, meaning overlapping actions can be facilitated instead of delayed, particularly for reaches further from the body's midline.
- The research also examines how hand preference and the brain hemisphere related to limb control impact reach performance, highlighting the significance of the degree of feature overlap in achieving benefits or costs in action execution.
