Rapid motor cortical plasticity can be induced by motor imagery training

Neuropsychologia, 2019
Previous behavioural research has revealed that motor imagery (MI) can be an effective technique to generate and enhance motor learning and rehabilitation. This MI-enhanced motor performance may emerge because MI shares overlapping neural networks with movement execution and observation and leads to the activation and neuro-plasticity of the motor ...

Motor system activation during motor imagery is positively related to the magnitude of cortical plastic changes following motor imagery training

Behavioural Brain Research, 2020
Motor imagery (MI) is a cognitive motor process wherein a person consciously imagines themselves performing a movement. Previous transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) studies have demonstrated that physical and observational training can elicit neuroplastic adaptations in the cortical representation of movement.

Enhancement of motor-imagery ability via combined action observation and motor-imagery training with proprioceptive neurofeedback

Neuropsychologia, 2018
Varied individual ability to control the sensory-motor rhythms may limit the potential use of motor-imagery (MI) in neurorehabilitation and neuroprosthetics. We employed neurofeedback training of MI under action observation (AO: AOMI) with proprioceptive feedback and examined whether it could enhance MI-induced event-related desynchronization (ERD ...

Training with Computer-Supported Motor Imagery in Post-Stroke Rehabilitation

CyberPsychology & Behavior, 2004
Converging lines of evidence suggest that motor imagery (the mental simulation of a motor act within working memory) is associated with subliminal activation of the motor system. This observation has led to the hypothesis that cortical activation during motor imagery may affect the acquisition of specific motor skills and help the recovery of motor ...

Keeping an eye on imagery: the role of eye movements during motor imagery training

Neuroscience, 2011
We recently found that spontaneous eye movements occur during motor imagery of hand movements, which are similar to those made during physical execution. In physical execution, eye movements have been shown to play an important role during training. In motor imagery practice, however, their effect remains unclear.

Neural mechanisms of strength increase after one‐week motor imagery training

European Journal of Sport Science, 2017
AbstractThe neural mechanisms explaining strength increase following mental training by motor imagery (MI) are not clearly understood. While gains are mostly attributed to cortical reorganization, the sub‐cortical adaptations have never been investigated. The present study investigated the effects of MI training on muscle force capacity and the related

Training imagery production in young children through motor involvement.

Journal of Educational Psychology, 1974
Kindergarten and first grade children were given a paired-assdciate learning task following one of five types of strategy-training procedures. In the motor training conditions, subjects generated interactions involving pairs of toys by playing with them or by drawing pictures of them.

The functional alterations associated with motor imagery training: a comparison between motor execution and motor imagery of sequential finger tapping

SPIE Proceedings, 2011
Motor imagery training, as an effective strategy, has been more and more applied to mental disorders rehabilitation and motor skill learning. Studies on the neural mechanism underlying motor imagery have suggested that such effectiveness may be related to the functional congruence between motor execution and motor imagery. However, as compared to the

Wireless EEG with individualized channel layout enables efficient motor imagery training

Clinical Neurophysiology, 2015
The study compared two channel-reduction approaches in order to investigate the effects of systematic motor imagery (MI) neurofeedback practice in an everyday environment using a very user-friendly EEG system consisting of individualized caps and highly portable hardware.Sixteen BCI novices were trained over four consecutive days to imagine left and ...
