Somatosensory Electrical Stimulation Does Not Augment Motor Skill Acquisition and Intermanual Transfer in Healthy Young Adults—A Pilot Study

János Négyesi, Menno P. Veldman, Kelly M.M. Berghuis, Marie Javet, József Tihanyi, and Tibor Hortobágyi

data may have prevented us from detecting significant changes, suggesting that TMS studies require the inclusion of a greater number of participants. In conclusion, the present study showed that SES did not further increase the magnitude of skill acquisition and intermanual transfer, which was
