Differential Influence of the Dorsal Premotor and Primary Somatosensory Cortex on Corticospinal Excitability during Kinesthetic and Visual Motor Imagery: A Low-Frequency Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Study [PDF]
Brain Sciences, 2021 Consistent evidence suggests that motor imagery involves the activation of several sensorimotor areas also involved during action execution, including the dorsal premotor cortex (dPMC) and the primary somatosensory cortex (S1).

The Study of Visual-Auditory Interactions on Lower Limb Motor Imagery [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2018 In order to improve the activation of the mirror neuron system and the ability of the visual-cued motor imagery further, the multi-stimuli-cued unilateral lower limb motor imagery is studied in this paper.

Handedness effects on motor imagery during kinesthetic and visual-motor conditions [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Recent studies show that during a simple movement imagery task, the power of sensorimotor rhythms differs according to handedness. However, the effects of motor imagery perspectives on these differences have not been investigated yet.

Characterization of kinesthetic motor imagery compared with visual motor imageries [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Motor imagery (MI) is the only way for disabled subjects to robustly use a robot arm with a brain-machine interface. There are two main types of MI.

Discovery of EEG effective connectivity during visual motor imagery with multi-scale symbolic transfer entropy [PDF]
Scientific ReportsVisual motor imagery (VMI) is an important component of motor imagery, with potential applications in brain-computer interfaces and motor rehabilitation due to its lower training cost compared to kinesthetic motor imagery (KMI).

Solving a mental rotation task in congenital hemiparesis: Motor imagery versus visual imagery
Neuropsychologia, 2007 A recent study showed that motor imagery was compromised after right congenital hemiparesis. In that study, posture of the displayed stimuli and the actual posture of the hand making the response were incongruent. Ample evidence exists that such an incongruency may negatively influence laterality judgements in a mental rotation task.

Neuroscience, 2016 To elucidate the neural substrate associated with capabilities for kinesthetic motor imagery of difficult whole-body movements, we measured brain activity during a trial involving both kinesthetic motor imagery and action observation as well as during a trial with action observation alone.
