Not fleeting but lasting: Limited influence of aging on implicit adaptative motor learning and its short-term retention.

Data supporting the publication entitled "Not fleeting but lasting: Limited influence of aging on implicit adaptative motor learning and its short-term retention."

The dataset provides the data of a replication attempt of the following paper: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25274819/

In this study, we measured total adaptation, implicit adaptation and spontaneous recovery of motor memories in a force-field paradigm in a group of 28 young participants and 20 older ones (55-70 years old). We failed to replicate the paper above and found no difference in total adaptation, implicit adaptation, and spontaneous recovery between the two age groups.
