Introduction: The present study assessed whether motor imagery (MI) produces
electromyographic activation in specific muscles of the upper limb during a hand grasping …

This study was designed to gain more insight into the mechanisms underlying motor
imagery (MI). While there is ample evidence that motor performance and MI share common …

The authors sought to gain further knowledge about activation of target muscles during
imagery engagement in a motor task. Six hemiparetic patients and 9 healthy participants …

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to verify whether motor imagery (MI) and observation
of a movement (MO) enhanced cortical representations of the hand/forearm muscles not …

Purpose The purpose of the current study was to explore the immediate effect of motor
imagery (MI) involving finger movement of a given limb on cortical response and muscle …

In this section, we concentrate on understanding the peripheral muscular activity which may
occur during the mental representation of an action. A great amount of experimental data …

Brain activation during executed (EM) and imagined movements (IM) of the right and left
hand was studied in 10 healthy right-handed subjects using functional magnetic resonance …

Motor imagery has become a key issue in cognitive neuroscience and particularly in fMRI
research. However, peripheral physiological effects of motor imagery were already being …

Background. Motor imagery (MI) enhances physical performance and skill acquisition in
healthy and neurorehabilitation populations, yet little is known about the use of strategies to …

Priming is a learning process that refers to behavioral changes caused by previous
exposure to a similar stimulus. Motor imagery (MI), which involves the mental rehearsal of …
