Abstract Several models propose Motor Imagery, Action Observation, and Movement
Execution recruit the same brain regions. There is, however, no quantitative synthesis of the …

Stroke affects one out of every six people on Earth. Approximately 90% of stroke survivors
have some functional disability with mobility being a major impairment, which not only …

Classical (Bayesian) probability (CP) theory has led to an influential research tradition for
modeling cognitive processes. Cognitive scientists have been trained to work with CP …

Humans walk bipedally, and thus, it is unclear why they swing their arms. In this paper, we
will review the mechanisms and functions of arm swinging in human gait. First, we discuss …

Locomotion in vertebrates and invertebrates has a long history in research as the most
prominent example of interlimb coordination. However, the evolution towards upright stance …

The mesial premotor cortex (pre-supplementary motor area and supplementary motor area
proper), lateral premotor cortex (dorsal premotor cortex and ventral premotor cortex), and …

Human dance was investigated with positron emission tomography to identify its systems-
level organization. Three core aspects of dance were examined: entrainment, meter and …

Functional imaging studies have shown that seniors exhibit more elaborate brain activation
than younger controls while performing motor tasks. Here, we investigated whether this age …

Advances in our understanding of movement control allow us to define more precisely the
requirements for the rehabilitation of patients with movement disorders. Most purposeful …

It is generally accepted that locomotion in mammals, including humans, is based on the
activity of neuronal circuits within the spinal cord (the central pattern generator, CPG) …
