The combined effects of motor imagery and motor practice are influenced by differences in working memory function: Examination of brain, spinal cord, and muscle performance data

IBRO Neuroscience Reports
The ability to perform motor imagery is affected by differences in short-term memory storage capacity in terms of the activation of working memory. Therefore, from the viewpoint of the simultaneous measurement of brain activation and spinal motor neuron ...

Motor Imagery and Action

, 2023
Abstract Mental imagery is a form of perceptual representation: the first stop in perceptual processing that is not triggered directly by sensory input. Motor imagery is not perceptual representation. It is motor representation. It is the last stop in motor processing that does not directly trigger bodily action.

Motor Imagery after Stroke

, 2023
After brain injury, people often suffer from temporary or permanent motor problems. This makes it more difficult to perform everyday activities, such as making a sandwich. Imagining movements (called motor imagery) or learning by observing movements could potentially contribute to motor recovery.

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

, 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 ...

Optimal Combination of Anodal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulations and Motor Imagery Interventions

Neural Plasticity, 2018
Motor imagery contributes to enhance the (re)learning of motor skills through remapping of cortical networks. Combining motor imagery with anodal transcranial direct-current stimulation (a-tDCS) over the primary motor cortex has further been shown to ...

Changes in spinal motoneuron excitability during the improvement of fingertip dexterity by actual execution combined with motor imagery practice

Heliyon
Since there is an upper limit to skill improvement through the repetition of actual execution, we examined whether motor imagery could be used in combination with actual execution to maximize motor skill improvement.

A Feasibility Study of Real-Time FMRI with Neurofeedback of Motor Performance in Cerebellar Ataxia

Brain Sciences
Background/Objectives: Neurodegenerative cerebellar ataxia (CA) is a movement disorder caused by progressive cell death in the cerebellum. Motor imagery represents a potential therapeutic tool to improve motor function by “exercising” brain regions ...

Wavelet design by means of multi-objective GAs for motor imagery EEG analysis [PDF]

, 2011
Wavelet-based analysis has been broadly used in the study of brain-computer interfaces (BCI), but in most cases these wavelet functions have not been designed taking into account the requirements of this field.

Effectiveness of motor imagery on sports performance in football players: A randomised control trial

Hong Kong Physiotherapy Journal
Background: Nowadays, the development of training programs for speed, agility and reaction time responses in football players is increasing widely. Motor imagery is a new method that uses collateral with physical training.

Actual and mental motor preparation and execution: a spatiotemporal ERP study [PDF]

, 2018
Studies evaluating the role of the executive motor system in motor imagery came to a general agreement in favour of the activation of the primary motor area (M1) during imagery, although in reduced proportion as compared to motor execution.
