Here we tested two working hypotheses on spatially selective cortical activation (“neural
efficiency”) in experts:(i) compared to non-athletes, elite karate athletes are characterized by …

“Neural efficiency” hypothesis posits that neural activity is reduced in experts. Here we
tested the hypothesis that compared with non-athletes, elite athletes are characterized by a …

This study tested the two following hypotheses:(i) compared with non‐athletes, elite athletes
are characterized by a reduced cortical activation during the preparation of precise visuo …

The present study tested the two following hypotheses:(i) compared to non-athletes, elite

By dynamic planning, we refer to the ability of the human brain to infer and impose motor
trajectories related to cognitive decisions. A recent paradigm, active inference, brings …

The movement-related cortical potential (MRCP) is a low-frequency negative shift in the
electroencephalographic recording that occurs about 2 s before voluntary movement …
