Journal ArticleDOI
The representing brain: Neural correlates of motor intention and imagery
TL;DR: A mechanism is proposed that is able to encode the desired goal of the action and is applicable to different levels of representational organization, as well as investigating the role of posterior parietal and premotor cortical areas in schema instantiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural simulation of action: a unifying mechanism for motor cognition.
TL;DR: The hypothesis that the motor system is part of a simulation network that is activated under a variety of conditions in relation to action, either self-intended or observed from other individuals, will be developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Grasping objects: the cortical mechanisms of visuomotor transformation
TL;DR: In humans, neuropsychological studies of patients with lesions to the parietal lobule confirm that primitive shape characteristics of an object for grasping are analyzed in theParietal lobe, and also demonstrate that this 'pragmatic' analysis of objects is separated from the 'semantic' analysis performed in the temporal lobe.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Timing of Natural Prehension Movements
TL;DR: Prehension movements were studied by film in 7 adult subjects and found that transportation of the hand to the target-object location had features very similar to any aiming arm movement, that is, it involved a fast-vel velocity initial phase and a low-velocity final phase.
Book
The neural and behavioural organization of goal-directed movements
TL;DR: The author's account is based upon experimental data from human and animal work with particular emphasis on illustrative clinical cases, and concepts derived from cognitive psychology in the study of motor control have opened new fields of investigation concerning the mental representation of goal-directed movements.
