RLIC is achieved as listed in the arm/group descriptions. RLIC is performed on visits 1-7, which occur on consecutive weekdays.

BEHAVIORAL

RLIC - 3 Cycles

RLIC is achieved as listed in the arm/group descriptions. RLIC is performed on visits 1-7, which occur on consecutive weekdays.

BEHAVIORAL

Sham conditioning

Sham conditioning is achieved as listed in the arm/group descriptions. Sham conditioning is performed on visits 1-7, which occur on consecutive weekdays.

BEHAVIORAL

Balance training

All participants undergo training on a balance board, learning to hold the board level with equal weight on each leg. Participants perform the balance task for 15, 30-second trials per day at visits 3-7.

BEHAVIORAL

Arm training

All participants undergo training on a cup stacking task, learning to assemble and disassemble cup configurations as fast as they can. Participants perform the cup stacking task 5 trials per day at visits 3-7.

BEHAVIORAL

Sequence production training

All participants undergo training on a discrete sequence production task. Participants learn to associate specific color and shape symbols with sequences of key presses on a keyboard. Participants perform the sequence production task for 10-15 minutes per day at visits 3-7.
