Cognitive constraints on motor imagery
Executed bimanual movements are prepared slower when moving to symbolically different than when moving to symbolically same targets and when targets are mapped to target locations in a left/right fashion than when they are mapped in an inner/outer fashion [Weigelt et al. (Psychol Res 71:238-447, 2007)]. We investigated whether these cognitive bimanual coordination constraints are observable in ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Motor imagery practice after the session training on motor memory consolidation in elderly
Introduction The purpose of the present study was to assess the effect of motor imagery training after exercise on motor memory consolidation in the elderly. Materials and Methods The statistical population of the study consisted of healthy men and women in Mashhad nursing homes 22 persons were randomly assigned to 2 groups: motor imagery and control (each group included 11 participants). Int...
متن کاملMotor imagery.
We describe general concepts about motor imagery and differences to motor execution. The problem of controlling what the subject actually does during imagery is emphasized. A major part of the chapter is dealing with mental training by imagery and the usage of motor imagination in athletes, musicians and during rehabilitation. Data of altered representations of the body after loss of afferent i...
متن کاملThe effect of somatosensory input on motor imagery depends upon motor imagery capability
We investigated that the relationship between motor imagery ability and the effect of tactile input associated with holding a tennis racket on motor imagery of the forehand and backhand swings. The effect was assessed by the time utilized for motor imagery (mental chronometry). Seventeen tennis players imagined forehand and backhand swings with a forehand grip, a backhand grip or while holding ...
متن کاملDoes Motor Simulation Theory Explain the Cognitive Mechanisms Underlying Motor Imagery? A Critical Review
Motor simulation theory (MST; Jeannerod, 2001) purports to explain how various action-related cognitive states relate to actual motor execution. Specifically, it proposes that motor imagery (MI; imagining an action without executing the movements involved) shares certain mental representations and mechanisms with action execution, and hence, activates similar neural pathways to those elicited d...
