The motor system continuously uses error feedback to recalibrate movements in response to changes in body and environmental conditions. Such error-based adaptation is thought to be obligatory, occurring whenever error signals are present, and even if the learning interferes with the achievement of the task goal. Contrary to this classical view, we demonstrate selective modulation of motor adaptation in the presence of multiple error signals based on their task-relevance.
