Pain-induced Impact on Movement: Motor Coordination Variability and Accuracy-based Skill.

Introduction: Studies on pain are generally conducted for two purposes: first, to study patients with pain who have physical changes due to nerve and muscle lesions, and second, to regain the appropriate kinematic post-pain pattern. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of pain on the coordination variability pattern and throwing accuracy.

Methods: The study participants included 30 people aged 18-25 years who volunteered to participate in the study.

Assessment of motor skill accuracy and coordination variability after application of local and remote experimental pain.

Motor learning is a relatively permanent change in motor performance. Also, one of the factors that can affect movement acquisition and movement patterns is pain and injury. The present study aims to investigate the effect of the induced local and remote pain during dart-throwing skill acquisition by examining motor skill accuracy and coordination variability.
