The impact of aging on the spatial accuracy of quick corrective arm movements in response to sudden target displacement during reaching

Age-related declines in visuomotor processing speed can have a large impact on motor performance in elderly individuals. Contrary to previous findings, however, recent studies revealed that elderly individuals are able to quickly react to displacement of a visual target during reaching. Here, we inv...
