Transfer of training in tracking performance at different target speeds

Abstract

Subjects trained at a medium target speed made scores significantly superior to those made by groups trained at low and at high target speeds, when later tested on the low and medium target speeds. This same group, however, made inferior scores when tested on the high target speed. Because of this, it seems reasonable to conclude that there are specific factor involved in tracking training, i.e., that training at certain target speeds leads to superior performance when particular target speeds are introduced at a later time.
