  1. Experiment 1: participants underwent the error-mixed and correct conditions
  2. Experiment 2: participants underwent the error and correct conditions
  3. Error-mixed model: The observational actions consisted of three types of pinching actions with peak forces of 4, 8, and 24 N. The appearance rates of 4, 8, and 24 N were 25%, 50%, and 25%, respectively
  4. Error model: The observational actions consisted of two types of pinching action with peak forces of 4 and 24 N. The appearance rates of 4 and 24 N were 50% each
  5. Correct model: The observational action consisted of only one type of pinching action with a peak force of 8 N
  6. PP Physical practice, KR knowledge of the results
