Relationship between Corticospinal Excitability While Gazing at the Mirror and Motor Imagery Ability
Brain Sciences, 2023 Mirror therapy (MT) helps stroke survivors recover motor function. Previous studies have reported that an individual’s motor imagery ability is related to the areas of brain activity during motor imagery and the effectiveness of motor imagery training ...

Questioning the transfer effect of motor imagery benefits: The neglected variable of interest
Asian Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology, 2022 Over the last three decades, a large amount of experimental research aimed at determining the optimal motor imagery practice guidelines, and provided a comprehensive overview of the main recommendations to develop effective interventions.

Stabilometric Correlates of Motor and Motor Imagery Expertise [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022 Motor Imagery (MI) reproduces cognitive operations associated with the actual motor preparation and execution. Postural recordings during MI reflect somatic motor commands targeting peripheral effectors involved in balance control. However, how these relate to the actual motor expertise and may vary along with the MI modality remains debated.

Selective effect of physical fatigue on motor imagery accuracy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 While the use of motor imagery (the mental representation of an action without overt execution) during actual training sessions is usually recommended, experimental studies examining the effect of physical fatigue on subsequent motor imagery performance ...

Comparison of cerebral activation between motor execution and motor imagery of self-feeding activity
Neural Regeneration Research, 2021 Motor imagery is defined as an act wherein an individual contemplates a mental action of motor execution without apparent action. Mental practice executed by repetitive motor imagery can improve motor performance without simultaneous sensory input or ...

Motor imagery and the muscle system
International Journal of Psychophysiology, 2022 Many studies have investigated the activation of cortical areas and corticospinal excitability during motor imagery (MI) in relation to motor execution. Similar activation of cortical areas during imagined and executed bodily movements and increased corticospinal excitability while imagining movements has been demonstrated.

Motor Imagery Ability and Motor Imagery Perspective Among Professional Football Players. [PDF]
Healthcare (Basel)Background: Motor Imagery (MI) refers to the mental simulation of movement without physical execution and activates brain areas involved in motor control. Its use in sports rehabilitation is growing due to its potential to promote recovery, reduce fear of re-injury, and maintain neuromuscular engagement.
