Context, transparency and culture in motor resonance phenomena: Causal evidence of the motor cortex [PDF]

open access: yesCortex
A connection between language and movement information in metaphorical and literal expressions activates the motor system. Despite numerous studies exploring distinctions between idioms and metaphors, a notable research gap remains in the specific effect of idioms with different transparency levels concerning motor resonance.

M1 large-scale network dynamics support human motor resonance and its plastic reshaping

open access: yesNeuroImage
Motor resonance – the facilitation of corticospinal excitability during action observation – is considered a proxy of Action Observation Network (AON) recruitment in humans, with profound implications for social cognition and action understanding ...

Brownian motors and stochastic resonance [PDF]

open access: yesChaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2011
We study the transport properties for a walker on a ratchet potential. The walker consists of two particles coupled by a bistable potential that allow the interchange of the order of the particles while moving through a one-dimensional asymmetric periodic ratchet potential. We consider the stochastic dynamics of the walker on a ratchet with an external

Motor resonance is modulated by an object's weight distribution [PDF]

open access: yesNeuropsychologia, 2020
Abstract Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) studies showed that corticospinal excitability (CSE) is modulated during observation of object lifting, an effect termed ‘motor resonance’. Specifically, motor resonance is driven by movement features indicating object weight, such as object size or observed movement kinematics.

Procedural Learning through Action Observation: Preliminary Evidence from Virtual Gardening Activity in Intellectual Disability

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2021
Intellectual disability (ID) compromises intellectual and adaptive functioning. People with an ID show difficulty with procedural skills, with loss of autonomy in daily life.

Fractional Brownian motors and stochastic resonance [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2012
We study fluctuating tilt Brownian ratchets based on fractional subdiffusion in sticky viscoelastic media characterized by a power law memory kernel. Unlike the normal diffusion case the rectification effect vanishes in the adiabatically slow modulation limit and optimizes in a driving frequency range.

Aging deteriorates the ability to discriminate the weight of an object during an action observation task

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2023
The ability to predict the weight of objects is important for skilled and dexterous manipulation during activities of daily living. The observation of other people moving objects might represent an important source of information on object features and ...

Exercise performance and corticospinal excitability during action observation

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016
Purpose: Observation of a model performing fast exercise improves simultaneous exercise performance, however the precise mechanism underpinning this effect is unknown.
