The Effects of Sporting and Physical Practice on Visual and Kinesthetic Motor Imagery Vividness: A Comparative Study Between Athletic, Physically Active, and Exempted Adolescents [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 The interest of motor imagery practice on performance and motor learning is well-established. However, the impact of sporting and physical practice on motor imagery vividness is currently unclear, especially in youth.

Subjective Vividness of Kinesthetic Motor Imagery Is Associated With the Similarity in Magnitude of Sensorimotor Event-Related Desynchronization Between Motor Execution and Motor Imagery [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018 In the field of psychology, it has been well established that there are two types of motor imagery such as kinesthetic motor imagery (KMI) and visual motor imagery (VMI), and the subjective evaluation for vividness of motor imagery each differs across ...

Neurofeedback-guided kinesthetic motor imagery training in Parkinson’s disease: Randomized trial [PDF]
NeuroImage: Clinical, 2022 Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) causes difficulty with maintaining the speed, size, and vigor of movements, especially when they are internally generated. We previously proposed that the insula is important in motivating intentional movement via its

Characterization of kinesthetic motor imagery compared with visual motor imageries [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Motor imagery (MI) is the only way for disabled subjects to robustly use a robot arm with a brain-machine interface. There are two main types of MI.

Enhanced lower-limb motor imagery by kinesthetic illusion
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023 Brain-computer interface (BCI) based on lower-limb motor imagery (LMI) enables hemiplegic patients to stand and walk independently. However, LMI ability is usually poor for BCI-illiterate (e.g., some stroke patients), limiting BCI performance. This study
