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

open access: yesJournal 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

The influence of expertise on brain activation of the Action Observation Network during anticipation of tennis and volleyball serves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In many daily activities, and especially in sport, it is necessary to predict the effects of others’ actions in order to initiate appropriate responses.

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

open access: yesInternational 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 ...

Observations on Mode of Action of Erythromycin.

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1952
ConclusionsErythromycin may be either bacteriostatic or bactericidal depending on the sensitivity of the organism and on the concentration of the antibiotic. Erythromycin exerts its effect only against multiplying bacteria.

Belief-based action prediction in preverbal infants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Successful mindreading entails both the ability to think about what others know or believe, and to use this knowledge to generate predictions about how mental states will influence behavior. While previous studies have demonstrated that young infants are

Differentiated Effects of Robot Hand Training With and Without Neural Guidance on Neuroplasticity Patterns in Chronic Stroke

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
Robot-assisted training combined with neural guided strategy has been increasingly applied to stroke rehabilitation. However, the induced neuroplasticity is seldom characterized.

Action observation and motor learning: The role of action observation in learning judo techniques

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Sport Science, 2022
ABSTRACTWithin the theoretical framework of embodied cognition, several experiments have shown the existence of links between action observation and motor learning. Our aim was to assess the effectiveness of an observational learning protocol (action observation training: AOT) of point‐light‐display (PLD) in judoka.

Short-term motor training, but not observational training, alters neurocognitive mechanisms of action processing in infancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The role of motor experience in the processing of perceived actions is hotly debated on both behavioral (e.g., action understanding) and neural (e.g., activation of the motor system) levels of interpretation. Whereas some researchers focus on the role of

Do Individual and Joint Action Goals Modulate Imitative Response Tendencies?

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
