The serial reaction time task is a widely used task in behavioural and cognitive neuroscience to assess human and animal learning. Many publications refer to this task as a 'motor learning task', but it is also a perceptual learning task. We emphasize here that the incorrect use of the term 'motor learning' misleads researchers and medical doctors by emphasizing the motor cortex's exclusive role. It has the potential to lead to the misinterpretation of neuroscientific, neuroimaging and clinical studies. The domino effect has the potential to generate more flawed hypotheses and theories.
序列反应时任务是行为和认知神经科学中广泛用于评估人类和动物学习的任务。许多出版物将此任务称为“运动学习任务”，但它也是一种知觉学习任务。我们在此强调，“运动学习”一词的不当使用通过强调运动皮层的唯一作用误导了研究人员和医生。它有可能导致对神经科学、神经影像学和临床研究的误解。多米诺效应有可能产生更多有缺陷的假设和理论。
