Figure Legend:
During training, participants adjusted the central line of the vertical bisection stimulus to the smallest offset visible either by using the computer mouse (Experiment 5, N = 10) or by using the keyboard buttons (Experiment 6, N = 10). Training in both experiments yield strong improvements of performance (p = and p < , respectively). Before and after training (pre- and posttraining tests), participants performed adjustments with both the mouse and the buttons. In Experiment 5, learning did not transfer to the button adjustment condition (p = 0.059). However, observers showed a high initial performance in the pretraining test that was significantly better for the buttons adjustment condition (blue pre vs. red pre, p = 0.003). In Experiment 6, training transferred significantly to the mouse adjustment condition (p = ); however, the posttraining performance remained significantly lower for the mouse than for key adjustment condition (post red vs. post blue, p = ), suggesting that the transfer was partial. Error bars represent ±SEM.
