This study investigated practice of specificity effect on spatial movement performance and learning when different forms of space were introduced in the practice of specificity. To examine different forms of spacing in the practice of specificity groups, forty-two right hander adults were randomly assigned to three groups (specificity, specificity and space, and serial practice ). Homogeneity was confirmed through outward arm movement test among three groups before proceeding to linear positioning experimental tasks. Absolute error (AE) and variable error (VE) were designed as dependant variables. One- way ANOVA was used to examine movement performance in acquisition. The results indicated that the AE value of specificity group was significantly lower (p < .05) than serial practice group and specificity + space group; The VE value of specificity group and specificity + space group were significantly lower (p < .05) than serial practice group. In retention test of learning effect: The AE value of specificity + space group was significantly lower (p < .05) than serial practice group and specificity group; the AE value of serial practice group was significantly lower (p < .05) than specificity group. The AE value of three groups in retention had no significantly difference (p > .05). The conclusion of this study: (1) the accuracy and stability of movement of specificity practice that had interfered space did not increase the spatial movement performance; and (2) The accuracy of movement of specificity practice had interfered space increased the spatial motor learning.
