Effects of Movement Representation Strategies on Cardiovascular Disease: A Literature Review

Journal of Vascular Diseases, 2023
Motor imagery (MI) and action observation (AO) techniques are two movement representation strategies that are widely used in multiple fields of study. MI is defined as the cognitive skill that involves the representation of an action, internally, without

Effectiveness of Action Observation and Motor Imagery on Relearning Upper Extremity Function After Stroke: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

International Clinical Neuroscience Journal, 2022
The effectiveness of action observation (AO) and motor imagery (MI) in high-quality studies with less risk of bias is rarely reported together. This systematic review evaluates the effectiveness of AO and MI on improving upper extremity function among ...

Do Individual and Joint Action Goals Modulate Imitative Response Tendencies?

Journal of Cognition
Coordinated social interaction requires people to control their tendencies to imitate each other’s actions. Previous research suggests that imitative response tendencies become modulated by the goals to which one’s own and others’ actions are ...

Using action observation to study superior motor performance: A pilot fMRI study

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013
The most efficient way to acquire motor skills may be through physical practice. Nevertheless, it has also been shown that action observation may improve motor performance.

Observation can be as effective as action in problem solving [PDF]

, 2007
The present study discusses findings that replicate and extend the original work of Burns and Vollmeyer (2002), which showed that performance in problem solving tasks was more accurate when people were engaged in a non-specific goal than in a specific

Observation of Both Skilled and Erroneous Object Lifting Can Improve Predictive Force Scaling in the Observer

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2019
Recent studies have highlighted that the observation of hand-object interactions can influence perceptual weight judgments made by an observer. Moreover, observing salient motor errors during object lifting allows individuals to update their internal ...

Bridging the Loneliness Gap: Depression, Connectivity, and Isolation in Pediatric Oncology Patients and Their Peers

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Loneliness is associated with adverse physical and mental health outcomes and remains understudied in children and adolescents undergoing cancer therapy. Pediatric oncology patients may be at increased risk due to medical isolation and disruption of social networks.
