Factors contributing to Australian adolescents’ self-report of their motor skill competence [PDF]
, 2018 An adolescents motor skill competence can affect areas such as sports participation, social activities and future academic or employment decisions. The Adolescent Motor Competence Questionnaire (AMCQ) is a 26-item questionnaire that uses a four point ...

Visual feedback alters force control and functional activity in the visuomotor network after stroke. [PDF]
, 2018 Modulating visual feedback may be a viable option to improve motor function after stroke, but the neurophysiological basis for this improvement is not clear.

More random motor activity fluctuations predict incident frailty, disability, and mortality
Science Translational Medicine, 2019 More random fluctuations in daily motor activity predict deteriorated quality of life and high death rate in elderly subjects. Predictive patterns Fractals are self-similar patterns that exist across different conditions; in medicine, changes in fractal ...

Explosive Strength Modeling in Children: Trends According to Growth and Prediction Equation
Applied Sciences, 2020 Lower limb explosive strength has been widely used to evaluate physical fitness and general health in children. A plethora of studies have scoped the practicality of the standing broad jump (SBJ), though without accounting for body dimensions, which are ...

State Variables of the Arm May Be Encoded by Single Neuron Activity in the Monkey Motor Cortex [PDF]
, 2016 Revealing the type of information encoded by neurons activity in the motor cortex is essential not only for understanding the mechanism of motion control but also for developing a brain-machine interface.

The Effects of Combined Movement and Storytelling Intervention on Motor Skills in South Asian and White Children Aged 5–6 Years Living in the United Kingdom [PDF]
, 2020 Early motor development has an important role in promoting physical activity (PA) during childhood and across the lifespan. Children from South Asian backgrounds are less active and have poorer motor skills, thus identifying the need for early motor ...

Attention-dependent modulation of neural activity in primary sensorimotor cortex [PDF]
, 2013 Although motor tasks at most times do not require much attention, there are findings that attention can alter neuronal activity not only in higher motor areas but also within the primary sensorimotor cortex.

Motor-cortical activity in tetraplegics [PDF]
Nature, 2001 It may eventually be feasible to reconstruct voluntary motor activity in the paralysed. Paralysed patients may benefit from the development of an implantable brain–computer interface device that can bypass damaged motor pathways1,2,3. But it is unclear whether chronically de-efferented areas will still be sufficiently excitable to respond to motor ...
