Handedness effects on motor imagery during kinesthetic and visual-motor conditions [PDF]
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]
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.

Controllability of Motor Imagery and Transformation of Visual Imagery
This study examined the relation between control of motor imagery and generation and transformation of visual imagery by testing 54 subjects. We used two measures of the Controllability of Motor Imagery test to evaluate the ability to control motor imagery.

Visual and Motor Mental Imagery After Brain Damage
This chapter presents evidence from brain-damaged patients relevant to the debate concerning the neural underpinnings of visual and motor mental imagery capacities. For visual mental imagery, the domains of object shape and color, orthographic material, and spatial imagery (imaginal neglect) are examined.

Muscle relaxation enhances motor imagery capacity in people with anxiety: A randomized clinical trial. [PDF]
BackgroundMotor imagery is the mental representation of a movement without physical execution. When motor imagery is performed to enhance motor learning and performance, participants must reach a temporal congruence between the imagined and actual ...

Multiple roles of motor imagery during action observation [PDF]
Over the last 20 years, the topics of action observation (AO) and motor imagery (MI) have been largely studied in isolation from each other, despite the early integrative account by Jeannerod (1994, 2001). Recent neuroimaging studies demonstrate enhanced

My hand or yours? Markedly different sensitivity to egocentric and allocentric views in the hand laterality task [PDF]
In the hand laterality task participants judge the handedness of visually presented stimuli – images of hands shown in a variety of postures and views - and indicate whether they perceive a right or left hand.

A meta-analytic review of multisensory imagery identifies the neural correlates of modality-specific and modality-general imagery [PDF]
The relationship between imagery and mental representations induced through perception has been the subject of philosophical discussion since antiquity and of vigorous scientific debate in the last century.

Vividness of Visual Imagery and Personality Impact Motor-Imagery Brain Computer Interfaces [PDF]
Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are communication bridges between a human brain and external world, enabling humans to interact with their environment without muscle intervention. Their functionality, therefore, depends on both the BCI system and the cognitive capacities of the user. Motor-imagery BCIs (MI-BCI) rely on the users’ mental imagination of

Upper limb hemiparesis is a common impairment following stroke and can affect interjoint coordination. Motor imagery training is one treatment strategy. However, motor imagery can use visual or kinesthetic modalities and there has been a lack of research
