BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Mental imagery involves rehearsing or practicing a task in
the mind with no physical movement. The technique is commonly used, but the actual …

In the present review, how to measure motor imagery ability, brain activity during motor
imagery, the benefits of motor imagery practice, and the influence of sensory inputs on motor …

This study used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate differences in
brain activity between one group of active high jumpers and one group of high jumping …

Numerous studies provide evidence that motor skill acquisition is associated with dynamic
changes in cortical and subcortical regions. Athletes are a professional population who are …

Evidence from previous studies has suggested that motor imagery and motor action engage
overlapping brain systems. As a result of this observation that motor imagery can activate …

Motor imagery is viewed as a window to cognitive motor processes and particularly to motor
control. Mental simulation theory [Jeannerod, M., 2001. Neural simulation of action: a …

Motor imagery is the mental process of rehearsing or simulating a given action without overt
movements. The aim of the present study is to examine plastic changes in relevant brain …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Although concussion is common among athletes,
evidence-based methods for clinical evaluation, treatment, and recovery are lacking. We …

Our aim was to quantify with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) changes in brain
activity in concussed athletes and compare the results with those of normal control subjects …

Motor imagery (MI) is a commonly used paradigm for the study of motor learning or cognitive
aspects of action control. The rationale for using MI training to promote the relearning of …
