On the content of sensorimotor representations after actual and motor imagery practice.
We examined the similarities between actual and motor imagery practice with regard to the development of sensorimotor representations. Participants had to reproduce knee joint positions (15 or 150 trials) in visuo-proprioceptive or proprioceptive conditions (Experiment 1) or in visual, proprioceptive or visuo-proprioceptive imagery conditions (Experiment 2), before being transferred in a propri...
متن کاملMental motor imagery and the body schema: evidence for proprioceptive dominance.
Previous studies have demonstrated that both visual and proprioceptive feedback influence motor control. The relative contributions of these sensory modalities to the on-line computation of body position--that is, the body schema--remain unclear. We report a study designed to explore the roles of vision and proprioception in motor planning. The task required subjects to judge if a pictured stim...
متن کاملProjecting the self outside the body: Body representations underlying proprioceptive imagery.
Recent research has shown that proprioception relies on distorted representations of body size and shape. By asking participants to localise multiple landmarks on their occluded hand, perceptual maps of hand size and shape can be constructed and compared to actual hand structure. These maps are different from the actual size and shape of the occluded hand, revealing underestimation of finger le...
متن کاملFaulty proprioceptive information disrupts motor imagery: an experimental study.
QUESTION Does faulty proprioceptive input disrupt the internal model of the body that the brain uses to control movement? DESIGN Randomised, within-participant experimental study. PARTICIPANTS Twenty-two (13 F) healthy adults. INTERVENTION Participants performed a motor imagery task that involved making left/right judgements of pictured right and left hands in 16 different postures under ...
متن کاملEffects of proprioception training with exercise imagery on balance ability of stroke patients
[Purpose] The purpose of the present study was to examine and compare the effects of proprioceptive training accompanied by motor imagery training and general proprioceptive training on the balance of stroke patients. [Subjects and Methods] Thirty-six stroke patients were randomly assigned to either an experimental group of 18 patients or a control group of 18 patients. The experimental group w...
