Technical movements in archery [PDF]
, 2014 The archery is a typically closed skill sport. It is a "closed skill" sport characterized by repetition, as precise as possible, of a movement already known automated. The aim is to evaluate the effects of motor imagery practice in training.

Short time sports exercise boosts motor imagery patterns: implications of mental practice in rehabilitation programs [PDF]
, 2014 Motor imagery (MI) is a commonly used paradigm for the study of motor learning or cognitive aspects of action control. The rationale for using MI training to promote the relearning of motor function arises from research on the functional correlates that ...

Influence of mirror therapy and motor imagery on intermanual transfer effects in upper-limb prosthesis training of healthy participants: A randomized pre-posttest study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 The effect that a motor skill trained on one side can lead to improvement in the untrained side is called intermanual transfer. Intermanual transfer can help enhance upper limb prosthetic training.

Observing Actions Through Immersive Virtual Reality Enhances Motor Imagery Training
IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2020 Visual information plays an essential role in enhancing neural activity during mental practices. Previous research has shown that using different visual scenarios during mental practices that involve imagining the movement of a specific body part may result in differences in performance. Many of these scenarios utilize the concept of embodiment, or one'

Increased motor cortex excitability during motor imagery in brain-computer interface trained subjects [PDF]
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2013 Motor imagery (MI) is the mental performance of movement without muscle activity. It is generally accepted that MI and motor performance have similar physiological mechanisms.To investigate the activity and excitability of cortical motor areas during MI in subjects who were previously trained with an MI-based brain-computer interface (BCI).Eleven ...
