The question is about measures of error in motor learning.

The charts below show the performance outcome of a person estimating a 2000 ms (2 seconds) time interval in two separate conditions: 1. by reacting to an externally generated start cue and 2 by reacting to a self-generated start cue.

Question: 1.Based on your variable errorscore, which of the two blocks of trials represents your best performance? Explain what this tells you about the consistency of each of your performances.
