Motor imagery can be defined as a dynamic state during which an individual mentally simulates a physical action. This type of phenomenal experience implies that the subject feels themselves performing the action. [4] . It corresponds to the so-called internal imagery (or first person perspective) of sport psychologists. [5]

With this review, we summarize the state-of-the-art of scientific studies in the field of motor imagery (MI) and motor execution (ME). We composed the brain map and description that correlate different brain areas with the type of movements it is responsible for.

The term motor imagery (MI) refers to the mental simulation of body movements. More precisely, MI represents conscious access to the content of a movement, which is functionally equivalent to unconscious motor planning ( Jeannerod, 1994; Lotze and Halsband, 2006 ).

Motor imagery is the mental execution of a movement without any overt movement or without any peripheral (muscle) activation. It has been shown that motor imagery leads to the activation of the same brain areas as actual movement. The present article discusses the role that motor imagery may play in neurological rehabilitation.

We describe general concepts about motor imagery and differences to motor execution. The problem of controlling what the subject actually does during imagery is emphasized. A major part of the chapter is dealing with mental training by imagery and the usage of motor imagination in athletes, musician …

2021年2月12日 · There are two main types of motor imageries: kinesthetic motor imagery (KMI) 14 and visual motor imagery (VMI) 14. KMI is described as the ability to imagine performing a movement by means of...

This study is dedicated to identifying differences in 4 types of motor imagery: first-person visual imagery, third-person visual imagery, kinesthetic imagery and sensory imagery. The research task includes Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) over the motor cortex, during which Motor Evoked Potentials over 3 arm muscles will be measured.

2011年6月17日 · Their Motor Imagery Integrative Model in Sport (MIIMS) includes four MI outcomes: 1) motor learning and performance; 2) motivation, self-confidence and anxiety; 3) strategies and problem-solving; and 4) injury rehabilitation.

2019年7月8日 · Our magnetoencephalographic (MEG) experiments with voluntary participants confirm the existence of two types of motor imagery, kinesthetic imagery (KI) and visual imagery (VI),...

2021年6月1日 · We review literature related to motor imagery practice in order to identify relevant modulators of practice effects like previous experience in motor training and motor imagery practice, the type of motor task to be trained, and strategies to increase sensory feedback during physical practice.
