Summary

The effect of rewarding vs. non-rewarding feedback on acquisition of a motor skill is investigated in a single blinded parallel group design. Reward consists of performance dependent monetary reward, or of knowledge of performance in selected (above average) trials.

The investigators hypothesize improved motor skill learning and higher involvement of the dopaminsrgic system under rewarding vs. non-rewarding conditions.
