Narrative: I was Pilot Flying for a visual approach to Runway 5R at RDU. Approach was stable and touchdown was within required parameters. Immediately after touchdown; I inadvertently began to pull up on the parking brake lever. The aircraft shuddered briefly and the handle was released. I returned my right hand to the thrust levers; engaged the reverser's and lowered the nose normally. I disengaged the auto brakes (set at Low) by using the brake pedals; slowed the aircraft gradually and elected to taxi clear of the runway since there was no difficulty in maintaining directional control. After clearing the active runway; I parked the aircraft and had airport operations to come and inspect the aircraft for damage. Operations did not find any damage or deflated tires. There were not any abnormal indications from the Fire Detection system or the wheel brake temperature indicators; so I elected to taxi back to the gate at a slower than normal speed. Aircraft was parked and secured without further incident. Maintenance was notified; and an entry was made in the Aircraft Maintenance Logbook.The majority of my flight time up until this point (nearly 4000 hours) was in the [Aircraft Type]. This aircraft did not have spoilers which auto-deployed upon touchdown; so the pilot had to pull the handle manually after bringing the thrust levers to idle. The spoiler handle on the [Aircraft Type] is in a similar location as the Parking Brake in the E190. I briefly lost focus and applied the improper procedure. This was not caused by any systemic or external factors. I need to chair fly more frequently and ensure that the proper procedures/techniques are applied any time I am on the flight deck.


Second narrative: During the landing roll out the CA (Captain) inadvertently briefly activated the parking brake. After clearing the runway we had a ground service vehicle inspect the tires. The ground service vehicle found no blown tires. We taxied safely to the gate. The CA made an entry into the AML and Maintenance was called. All four tires were replaced due to flat spotting. Due to the CA having muscle memory from a previous plane he inadvertently pulled the parking brake during the landing roll out. I think all pilots carry over things from previous aircraft they have flown. While training and transitioning to new aircraft we could try to identify things that transfer negatively in order to better capture future errors that could happen as a result.


Synopsis: ERJ-190 flight crew reported inadvertently applying the parking brake during landing.
