Sequence preparation is not always associated with a reaction time cost
The extent to which a sequence of movements is prepared before initiating the first movement is a longstanding question in motor neuroscience. The observation that reaction time (RT) increases for lon...

I don't know who needs to hear this but: there are many ways to be successful in science -- think about what you want to achieve, how you can achieve it, and aim for that.
This is such a horrifically bad idea that I don't even know where to begin.
