Abstract in brief

  • Bimanual coordination training in older adults improves inhibitory functions and transfers benefits to untrained motor and cognitive tasks that share similar processes.
  • The experiment involved 17 older participants practicing a bimanual coordination task, with assessments before, after, and one week later, measuring reaction times and error rates in both motor and cognitive inhibition tasks.
  • Results showed that training not only enhanced performance on the practiced task but also transferred to unpracticed tasks, with improvements in inhibitory control mediating this transfer.
