Action Observation for Neurorehabilitation in Apraxia [PDF]
Frontiers in Neurology, 2019 Neurorehabilitation and brain stimulation studies of post-stroke patients suggest that action-observation effects can lead to rapid improvements in the recovery of motor functions and long-term motor cortical reorganization.

Implicit action prediction constrains observed biological action reconstruction [PDF]
Heliyon, 2021 Voluntary movements include a predictive control of the sensory-motor consequences of executed or observed actions. The motor system predicts further steps of actions relying on its pure observation.

Action Observation and Effector Independency [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2019 The finding of reasonably consistent spatial and temporal productions of actions across different body parts has been used to argue in favor of the existence of a high-order representation of motor programs.

Action observation responses in macaque frontal cortex [PDF]
NeuroImage: ReportsNeurons that are active during action execution and action observation (i.e. Action Observation/Execution Neurons, AOENs) are distributed across the brain in a network of parietal, motor, and prefrontal areas.

The effect of action observation and motor imagery on jumping and perceived performance [PDF]
Frontiers in PsychologyIntroductionAction observation (AO) and motor imagery (MI) are cognitive processes that involve mentally rehearsing and simulating movements without physically performing them.

Modulation of Corticospinal Excitability during Action Observation in Patients with Disorders of Consciousness [PDF]
Brain SciencesBrain imaging studies have recently provided some evidence in favor of covert cognitive processes that are ongoing in patients with disorders of consciousness (DoC) (e.g., a minimally conscious state and vegetative state/unresponsive wakefulness syndrome)

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022 Actions can be physically executed, observed, imagined, or simply thought about. Unifying mental processes, such as simulation, emulation, or predictive processing, are thought to underlie different action types, whether they are mental states, as in the

Motor cortical inhibition during concurrent action execution and action observation
NeuroImage, 2020 Action Execution (AE) and Action Observation (AO) share an extended cortical network of activated areas. During coordinative action these processes also overlap in time, potentially giving rise to behavioral interference effects.

Can action observation modulate balance performance in healthy subjects?
Archives of Physiotherapy, 2019 Background Action observation activates brain motor networks and, if followed by action imitation, it facilitates motor learning and functional recovery in patients with both neurological and musculoskeletal disorders. To date, few studies suggested that

Single session of action observation in choice reaction time in healthy children
Motriz: Revista de Educacao Fisica, 2021 Aim: Learning by action observation (AO) is a fundamental cognitive ability existing from birth either in live or in the video. However, the specific AO training, in live or in the video, can influence decision making and motor planning in healthy ...
