Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
<p>From the discrete test, the range of velocities at which the virtual hand is<br /><br>opened and closed during both pre- and posttest is used to determine the level<br /><br>and improvement of discrete myocontrol. In the continuous test the difference<br /><br>between the myosignals and the target patterns (the patterns that participants<br /><br>had to match their myosignal levels to) are used as outcome measures to<br /><br>determine the level and improvement of the participants* continuous myocontrol<br /><br>ability.</p><br>

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
<p>Dexterity tests: time to complete the pinboard task (mABC2), force production<br /><br>assessments on the grip force task and scores on the Fitts' task will be used<br /><br>to test prediction of myocontrol learning ability.<br /><br><br /><br>Hand dominance: the interaction effect between hand dominance and virtual<br /><br>training method will be used to determine whether the dominant and non-dominant<br /><br>hand differ in the training method which has the best effect.</p><br>
