Abstract: Equivocable experimental results obtained over several decades of motor learning and memory research, have served more to cloud the theoretical picture than to enhance our understanding of movement memory. The reasons for this slate are practical as well as theoretical in nature. In the presence of so many disparate interpretations arising from the data, perhaps the simplist approach would be to virtually disregard the structuralist viewpoint and develop a set of experiments to provide a more functionalislic data-base. Two experiments involving movement length and temporal duration were completed. Comparisons are made to other non-verbal experiments involving the memory for single items. Persistance of the memory may be related to its associated episodic content.
