Anxiety, a psychological and physiological response to a future unpredictable threat, often results in sub-optimal motor performance and learning. Based on the evidence that state anxiety leads to ritualistic behavior (repetition, redundancy, rigidity of movements), and given the increasingly recognized relevance of movement variability for motor learning, we tested the hypothesis that state anxiety impairs motor learning through a reduction in behavioral variability. Furthermore, we predicted that this reduction is driven by changes in neural variability across premotor and motor cortex. In an electroencephalography (EEG) study, three groups of participants completed a reward-based motor sequence learning paradigm, with separate phases for motor exploration (baseline, sequence1) and reward-based learning (sequence2). Anxiety was manipulated either during baseline or learning. Our results demonstrate that anxiety at baseline reduces motor variability, undermining subsequent reward-based learning. Anxiety during reward-based learning did not affect motor variability, nor did it impair learning. A second experiment confirmed that removal of baseline motor exploration led to anxiety diminishing reward-based learning, thus supporting the relevance of unconstrained exploration for successful motor learning. EEG analysis revealed that changes in the variability of sensorimotor beta oscillations (13-30Hz) mediated the effects of anxiety on motor variability. Moreover, bursts of sensorimotor beta oscillations, a marker of physiological beta, lasted longer under the effect of anxiety, resembling recent findings of pathophysiological beta in movement disorders. Our findings suggest that changes in variability and burst duration in sensorimotor beta oscillations represent a neural mechanism through which anxiety constrains movement variability, with detrimental consequences for motor learning.
