Motor Activity Improves Temporal Expectancy [PDF]
PLOS ONE, 2015 Certain brain areas involved in interval timing are also important in motor activity. This raises the possibility that motor activity might influence interval timing. To test this hypothesis, we assessed interval timing in healthy adults following different types of training.

THE MOTOR ACTIVITY OF THE VENAE CAVAE [PDF]
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1922 The question as to whether the establishment of a definite peripheral resistance requires active variations in the size of the venous blood-bed has been discussed repeatedly. In general, it may be stated that the resistance encountered by the arterial blood in its passage through the vascular system depends on: ( a ) the size of the arteriocapillary ...

Motor point stimulation primarily activates motor nerve
Neuroscience Letters, 2020 Electrical stimulation for inducing muscle contraction can be divided into peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) and motor point stimulation (MPS). Although the neural pathways activated by PNS have been well studied, those by MPS are still unclear. Here we investigated whether MPS activates Ia-sensory nerves and induces antidromic firing of motor nerves.

The origin of segmentation motor activity in the intestine [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2014 The segmentation motor activity of the gut that facilitates absorption of nutrients was first described in the late 19th century, but the fundamental mechanisms underlying it remain poorly understood. The dominant theory suggests alternate excitation and inhibition from the enteric nervous system. Here we demonstrate that typical segmentation can occur

SportsBackground: From a young age, children learn different motor skills known as fundamental motor skills. The acquisition of these skills is crucial for the future development of context-tailored actions that could improve adherence to physical activity (PA)

Active Inference, Attention, and Motor Preparation [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2011 Perception is the foundation of cognition and is fundamental to our beliefs and consequent action planning. The Editorial (this issue) asks: "what mechanisms, if any, mediate between perceptual and cognitive processes?" It has recently been argued that attention might furnish such a mechanism.
