) experimental designs. In each task, there were two possible targets of different sizes and distances, with the same index of difficulty according to Fitts’ Law ( 1954 ). In the first task, participants moved along a track on a piece of Plexiglas® from the start position to one of the two targets, making it a

, one more motor control determinant becomes an important “player”: variability of motor performance. According to Harris and Wolpert ( 1998 ), minimum-variance theory accurately predicts the trajectories of movements and the speed–accuracy trade-off described by Fitts’ law. Moreover, Bertucco, Bhanpuri

performed by psychologists, one of the established laws is the Fitts’ law ( Fitts, 1954 ), which links movement time (MT) to an index of task difficulty (ID) computed as the ratio of movement distance to target size: MT = a + b ·log(ID), where a and b are constants. Fitts’ law has been confirmed

, three task types were defined with the target-centered ranges [ A , W ], that is, [1, 0.1], [2, 0.2], and [3, 0.3]. The index of difficulty of tasks was defined as index of difficulty = √ A / W in Meyer formula deriving from Fitts’ law ( Peng et al., 2019 ). As a result, the task difficulty level of

Understanding the function and control of leg joints in hopping could provide insight into the fundamental principles of legged locomotion of humans. Humans change the functional roles
