Intention and motor representation in purposive action [PDF]
, 2014 Are there distinct roles for intention and motor representation in explaining the purposiveness of action? Standard accounts of action assign a role to intention but are silent on motor representation.

مجلة العلوم و التكنولوجية للنشاطات البدنية و الرياضية, 2022 This study aims to comparing the effect of short intermittent training "running" (ITr) and intermittent training "running-strength" (ITr-s) on aerobic-anaerobic performances: the maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max), maximum aerobic speed (MAS) and ...

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.

Cross-modal sensory signaling shapes vestibulo-motor circuit specificity [PDF]
, 2015 The ability to continuously adjust posture and balance is necessary for reliable motor behavior. Vestibular and proprioceptive systems influence postural adjustments during movement by signaling functionally complementary sensory information. Using

Multiple roles of motor imagery during action observation [PDF]
, 2013 Over the last 20 years, the topics of action observation (AO) and motor imagery (MI) have been largely studied in isolation from each other, despite the early integrative account by Jeannerod (1994, 2001). Recent neuroimaging studies demonstrate enhanced

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

Different brain circuits underlie motor and perceptual representations of temporal intervals [PDF]
, 2008 In everyday life, temporal information is used for both perception and action, but whether these two functions reflect the operation of similar or different neural circuits is unclear.
