Motor execution, observation, and imagery are important skills used in motor learning and
rehabilitation. The neural mechanisms underlying these cognitive-motor processes are still …

In this study, we aimed at exploring the feasibility of functional near-infrared spectroscopy
(fNIRS) for studying the observation and/or motor imagination of various postural tasks …

The observation of others' actions activates a network of temporal, parietal and
premotor/prefrontal areas in macaque monkeys and humans. This action-observation …

The action observation network (AON) is a network of brain regions involved in the
execution and observation of a given action. The AON has been investigated in humans …

This study explored whether and how sleep deprivation (SD) affects sport-related
anticipation. Twenty table tennis players and 28 non-athletes completed a table tennis …

Introduction This study conducts a comprehensive exploration of the neurocognitive
processes underlying consumer credit decision-making using cutting-edge techniques from …

Background The mirror neuron system (MNS) plays a key role in the neural mechanism
underlying motor learning and neural plasticity. Action observation (AO), action execution …

Brain activity in the action observation network (AON) is lateralized during action execution,
with greater activation in the contralateral hemisphere to the side of the body used to …

The observation of action seems to involve the generation of the internal representation of
that same action in the observer, a process named motor resonance (MR). The objective of …

Whether in performing arts, sporting, or everyday contexts, when we watch others move, we
tend to enjoy bodies moving in synchrony. Our enjoyment of body movements is further …
