Exercise training improves motor skill learning via selective activation of mTOR
Our ex vivo and in vivo studies demonstrate a molecular pathway for exercise-induced learning enhancement. Physical exercise improves learning and memory, but little in vivo evidence has been provided to illustrate the molecular mechanisms. Here, we show

Acquisition and consolidation processes following motor imagery practice
It well-known that mental training improves skill performance. Here, we evaluated skill acquisition and consolidation after physical or motor imagery practice, by means of an arm pointing task requiring speed-accuracy trade-off.

Fine Motor Control Underlies the Association Between Response Inhibition and Drawing Skill in Early Development [PDF]
Previous research shows that the development of response inhibition and drawing skill are linked. The current research investigated whether this association reflects a more fundamental link between response inhibition and motor control.

Factors contributing to Australian adolescents’ self-report of their motor skill competence [PDF]
An adolescents motor skill competence can affect areas such as sports participation, social activities and future academic or employment decisions. The Adolescent Motor Competence Questionnaire (AMCQ) is a 26-item questionnaire that uses a four point ...

Practical Representation [PDF]
This chapter discusses recent attempts to clarify the notion of practical representation and its theoretical fruitfulness. The ultimate goal is not just to show that intellectualists are on good grounds when they appeal to practical representation in ...

Motor Output Variability Impairs Driving Ability in Older Adults: Reply to Stinchcombe, Dickerson, Weaver, and Bedard [PDF]
Driving is a complex skill, as indicated by Stinchcombe and colleagues in their letter. It requires the integration of sensory inputs, cognitive processing, and motor execution.
