Disentangling motor execution from motor imagery with the phantom limb [PDF]

open access: yesBrain, 2012
Amputees can move their phantom limb at will. These 'movements without movements' have generally been considered as motor imagery rather than motor execution, but amputees can in fact perform both executed and imagined movements with their phantom and they report distinct perceptions during each task.

Disrupting somatosensory processing impairs motor execution but not motor imagery

Human Movement Science, 2023
While motor imagery (MI) is thought to be 'functionally equivalent' with motor execution (ME), the equivalence of feedforward and feedback mechanisms between the two modalities is unexplored. Here, we tested the equivalence of these mechanisms between MI and ME via two experiments designed to probe the role of somatosensory processing (Exp 1), and ...

Effects of tDCS on Cortical Motor Facilitation in Performing Motor Execution

2021 9th International Winter Conference on Brain-Computer Interface (BCI), 2021
This study aims to reveal how motor execution contributes to cortical motor facilitation during tDCS. Four healthy subjects were participated in two experimental protocols: (1) tDCS with task (i.e., right hand clenching) and (2) tDCS without task. Each subject underwent 3 sessions (before tDCS, tDCS, after tDCS) for each protocol. Oxygenated hemoglobin

Speed of motor execution and apraxia

Journal of Clinical and Experimental Neuropsychology, 1997
We used a reaction time paradigm to explore the relationship between motor execution and apraxia. The task required reaching for one to three keys. The instruction was varied by introducing a model of a hand indicating which fingers to use. Whereas patients with right-brain damage were slower than controls regardless of condition, the performance of ...

Surround inhibition in motor execution and motor imagery

Neuroscience Letters, 2016
Surround inhibition (SI) is a neural mechanism to focus neuronal activity and facilitate selective motor execution (ME). The aim of the present study was to investigate whether SI is also generated during motor imagery (MI). Furthermore, we investigated whether the extent of SI during MI depends on the strength of SI during ME and/or vividness of MI ...

The striatum and motor cortex in motor initiation and execution

Brain Research, 1991
The participation of striatal and motor cortex neurons in motor initiation and execution was studied using single neuronal recording in 3 monkeys performing wrist flexion and extension stimulus-initiated reaction time tasks. Observations of 46 striatal neurons whose activity correlated with the tasks were compared to recordings of 59 task-related motor

MOTOR PREPARATION, MOTOR EXECUTION, ATTENTION, AND EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONS IN ATTENTION DEFICIT/HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER (ADHD)

Child Neuropsychology, 2005
Attention and executive functions were investigated in medicated and unmedicated children with ADHD combined type using a novel selective reaching task. This task involved responding as rapidly as possible to a target while at times having to ignore a distractor.

Motor execution is necessary to memorize disparity

Experimental Brain Research, 2000
Binocular saccades in response to briefly flashed, memorized disparate targets (different for the two eyes) become disconjugate following repeated trials. After 15 min of such training, the disconjugacy persists, even when the target to memorize is no longer disparate. This study examines the hypothesis that disparity memorization has a motor basis. We

Neuromodulation of parietal and motor activity affects motor planning and execution

Cortex, 2014
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive tool, which effectively modulates behavior, and related brain activity. When applied to the primary motor cortex (M1), tDCS affects motor function, enhancing or decreasing performance of both healthy participants and brain-damaged patients.

Executive Function and Motor Skill Learning

1997
Publisher Summary Evidence from behavioral studies of patients with cerebellar atrophy implies that the cerebellum plays a role in visuomotor learning and adaptation, planning, strategic thinking, time processing, and associative learning. Evidence from studies using functional neuroimaging supports this implication and substantiates the hypothesis ...
