Does mental exertion alter maximal muscle activation?
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 Mental exertion is known to impair endurance performance, but its effects on neuromuscular function remain unclear. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that mental exertion reduces torque and muscle activation during intermittent maximal

Extrapolation of time series of EMG power spectrum parameters in isometric endurance tests of trunk extensor muscles [PDF]
, 1998 The aim of the present study was to test the viability of using short isometric contractions of trunk extensor muscles to perform an assessment of their endurance capacity. To this aim two types of analysis were performed.

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, 2017 The central question in the paper by Morecroft (2017) is whether ‘structure drives behaviour’ also holds over a long time period, or, in other words, whether feedback structures shaping trends endure over time. Morecroft revisits a model of the oil industry originally developed in the late 1980s and, changing only initial parameter settings, concludes ...
