Kinesthetic Imagery Provides Additive Benefits to Internal Visual Imagery on Slalom Task Performance [PDF]
Recent brain imaging research demonstrates that the use of internal visual imagery (IVI) or kinesthetic imagery (KIN) activates common and distinct brain areas. In this paper, we argue that combining the imagery modalities (IVI and KIN) will lead to a greater cognitive representation (with more brain areas activated), and this will cause a greater ...
