But interrupt the storage process by learning another new skill and that first lesson may be erased, according to research into memory and the mind.... The researchers used a device that meaasures blood flow in the brain. They concluded it takes five to six hours for the memeory of a new skill to move from a temporary storage site in the front of the brain to a permanent storage site at the back.... "During those six hours", said Dr. Holcomb, "there is a neural 'window of vulnerability' when that new skill can be easily eroded from memory if the person attempts to learn a second new skill ... If you were performing a piano piece for the first time and then immediately started practicing something else, then that will cause problems in retention of the initial piece that you practiced. It would be better if the first practice session were followed by five to six hours of routine activity that required no new learning." "This is a new and important insight into the relationship between motor skill learning and neural activity. The brain is incredibly flexible", said Dr. Cave. "It may not be, for instance, that practicing the piano would interfere with what you learned just before from a tennis lesson. The two skills could use diffeent parts of the brain." --__--__-- Message: 7 From: Ray Terry To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net (Eskrima) Date: Tue, 15 Oct 2002 14:06:12 -0700 (PDT) Subject: [Eskrima] non-digestified version of the list Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net If you're interested, list subscribers (y'all) may now login to http://eskrima-fma.net using your email-addr and password and set your preferences to receive the Eskrima list as individual emails instead of in digest format.
