Motor simulation without motor expertise: enhanced corticospinal excitability in visually experienced dance spectators [PDF]

, 2012
The human “mirror-system” is suggested to play a crucial role in action observation and execution, and is characterized by activity in the premotor and parietal cortices during the passive observation of movements.

Intention and motor representation in purposive action [PDF]

, 2014
Are there distinct roles for intention and motor representation in explaining the purposiveness of action? Standard accounts of action assign a role to intention but are silent on motor representation.

Distortion of Visuo-Motor Temporal Integration in Apraxia: Evidence From Delayed Visual Feedback Detection Tasks and Voxel-Based Lesion-Symptom Mapping

Frontiers in Neurology, 2018
Limb apraxia is a higher brain dysfunction that typically occurs after left hemispheric stroke and its cause cannot be explained by sensory disturbance or motor paralysis.

Functional imaging of the brainstem during visually-guided motor control reveals visuomotor regions in the pons and midbrain

NeuroImage, 2021
Integrating visual information for motor output is an essential process of visually-guided motor control. The brainstem is known to be a major center involved in the integration of sensory information for motor output, however, limitations of functional ...

Effects of rTMS conditioning over the fronto-parietal network on motor versus visual attention [PDF]

, 2007
Many studies have shown that visuospatial orienting attention depends on a network of frontal and parietal areas in the right hemisphere. Rushworth et al. [Rushworth, M. F., Krams, M., & Passingham, R. E. The attentional role of the left parietal cortex:

Enhanced Information Flow From Cerebellum to Secondary Visual Cortices Leads to Better Surgery Outcome in Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy Patients: A Stochastic Dynamic Causal Modeling Study With Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
Degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) damages the spinal cord, resulting in long-term neurological impairment including motor and visual deficits. Given that visual feedback is crucial in guiding movements, the visual disorder may be a cause of motor ...

Different brain circuits underlie motor and perceptual representations of temporal intervals [PDF]

, 2008
In everyday life, temporal information is used for both perception and action, but whether these two functions reflect the operation of similar or different neural circuits is unclear.
