Question 2

According to Fitts' Law, a person's movement time will be faster for a task with an ID of 6 than for an ID of 3.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 3

Because we can write our signature relatively legibly with a pen held by either hand, either foot, or even by our teeth, researchers often describe handwriting as a good example of Bernstein's concept of motor:
