This study examined whether use of an N-back task could promote implicit and explicit motor learning. In Experiment 1, 30 healthy adults were assigned to an N-back task group (NTG) or a control task group (CG). All participants performed the serial reaction time task (SRTT) and generation task after either the N-back or control tasks. The results did not reveal whether the N-back task promoted implicit or explicit motor learning because participants in the NTG noticed a hidden loop in the SRTT and this "awareness" made it difficult to interpret the results in Experiment 1. In Experiment 2, we examined whether the N-back task promoted explicit motor learning only using a modified SRTT. Thirty healthy adults were assigned to the NTG or the CG. On day 1, all participants performed the modified SRTT after either the N-back or control tasks. On day 7, all participants repeated the modified SRTT. As a result, the performance on the modified SRTT was faster in the NTG than in the CG on days 1 and 7. In summary, although the N-back task might promote explicit motor learning, the present study could not clearly conclude whether the N-back task promoted implicit and explicit motor learning.
