It is well accepted that repeatedly imagining oneself acting without any overt behavior can
lead to learning. The prominent theory accounting for why imagery practice is effective …

Acting in the environment results in both intended and unintended consequences. Action
consequences provide feedback about the adequacy of actions while they are in progress …

With the popularity of deep learning, motor imagery electroencephalogram (MI-EEG)
recognition based on feature extractors and classifiers has performed well. However, the …

Over the past few decades, researchers have become interested in the mechanisms behind
motor imagery (ie, the mental rehearsal of action). During this time several theories of motor …

Freezing of gait is the most severe gait deficit associated with Parkinson's disease and
significantly affects patients' independence and consequently their quality of life. The lack of …

Accurate characterization of brain activity during a cognitive task is challenging due to the
dynamically changing and the complex nature of the brain. The majority of the proposed …

Motor imagery (MI) is a mental simulation of a movement without its actual execution. Our
study aimed to assess how MI of two modalities of gait (normal gait and much more …

During motor imagery, global inhibition and effector-specific inhibition contribute to prevent
actual movements. We investigated the decay of inhibition using an action-mode switching …

Understanding the neurocognitive mechanisms that govern the coordination of habitual and
goal-directed behaviors is important, because impaired coordination will cause various …

In motor imagery, effector-specific inhibition (inhibition of the used effector) and global
inhibition (inhibition of all motor commands) prevent actual actions. Global inhibition is partly …
