Promoting Motor Variability During Robotic Assistance Enhances Motor Learning of Dynamic Tasks

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Despite recent advances in robot-assisted training, the benefits of haptic guidance on motor (re)learning are still limited. While haptic guidance may increase task performance during training, it may also decrease participants' effort and interfere with

Motor Learning by Observing [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2005
Learning complex motor behaviors like riding a bicycle or swinging a golf club is based on acquiring neural representations of the mechanical requirements of movement (e.g., coordinating muscle forces to control the club). Here we provide evidence that mechanisms matching observation and action facilitate motor learning.

Learning motor actions via imagery—perceptual or motor learning?

open access: yesPsychological Research, 2023
AbstractIt is well accepted that repeatedly imagining oneself acting without any overt behavior can lead to learning. The prominent theory accounting for why imagery practice is effective, motor simulation theory, posits that imagined action and overt action are functionally equivalent, the exception being activation of the end effector.

Effects of different virtual reality technology driven dual-tasking paradigms on posture and saccadic eye movements in healthy older adults

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Postural sway and eye movements are potential biomarkers for dementia screening. Assessing the two movements comprehensively could improve the understanding of complicated syndrome for more accurate screening.

Congruency of Information Rather Than Body Ownership Enhances Motor Performance in Highly Embodied Virtual Reality

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
In immersive virtual reality, the own body is often visually represented by an avatar. This may induce a feeling of body ownership over the virtual limbs. Importantly, body ownership and the motor system share neural correlates.
