KINESTHETIC IMAGERY TRAINING OF FORCEFUL MUSCLE CONTRACTIONS INCREASES BRAIN SIGNAL AND MUSCLE STRENGTH

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013
The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of training using internal imagery (IMI; also known as kinesthetic imagery or first person imagery) with that of external imagery (EMI; also known as third-person visual imagery) of strong muscle ...

Assessing brain-muscle networks during motor imagery to detect covert command-following

open access: yesBMC Medicine
Background In this study, we evaluated the potential of a network approach to electromyography and electroencephalography recordings to detect covert command-following in healthy participants. The motivation underlying this study was the development of a

Evidence for the dependence of visual and kinesthetic motor imagery on isolated visual and motor practice

open access: yesConsciousness and Cognition
Motor imagery (MI) is a cognitive process believed to rely on the representation developed through task-specific experience. Despite ideas about the equivalence between MI and execution, the relationship between visual-motor experiences and MI ability is unclear.

Structural and functional features characterizing the brains of individuals with higher controllability of motor imagery

open access: yesScientific Reports
Motor imagery is a higher-order cognitive brain function that mentally simulates movements without performing the actual physical one. Although motor imagery has attracted the interest of many researchers, and mental practice utilizing motor imagery has ...

The reliability and validity study of the Kinesthetic and Visual Imagery Questionnaire in individuals with Multiple Sclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes
Motor imagery (MI) has been recently considered as an adjunct to physical rehabilitation in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). It is necessary to assess MI abilities and benefts in patients with MS by using a reliable tool.

Muscle relaxation enhances motor imagery capacity in people with anxiety: A randomized clinical trial.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
BackgroundMotor imagery is the mental representation of a movement without physical execution. When motor imagery is performed to enhance motor learning and performance, participants must reach a temporal congruence between the imagined and actual ...

Multiscale Topological Properties Of Functional Brain Networks During Motor Imagery After Stroke

open access: yes, 2013
In recent years, network analyses have been used to evaluate brain reorganization following stroke. However, many studies have often focused on single topological scales, leading to an incomplete model of how focal brain lesions affect multiple network ...
