Abstract

Unilateral lesions of the supplementary motor area (SMA) produce a deficit in bimanual coordination which is long-lasting. Both hands tend to be used in an identical manner instead of sharing the work load between them. This finding seems to be consistent with a role of SMA in the programming of movement through instruction of the primary motor area.
