Journal ArticleDOI

Generalization of motor resonance during the observation of hand, mouth, and eye movements

TL;DR: It is proposed that motor activities during AO might exploit the same synergistic mechanisms shown for the neural control of movement and organized around a limited set of motor primitives.
Journal ArticleDOI

Direction-dependent activation of the insular cortex during vertical and horizontal hand movements

TL;DR: Interestingly, it is found that the insular cortex activity is direction-dependent which suggests that this brain region processes the effects of gravity on the moving limbs through non-visual signals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrophysiological correlates of biological motion permanence in humans.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the neural substrates of biological motion permanence by recording scalp EEG activity of sixteen subjects while they passively observed either biological or scrambled motion disappearing behind an occluder and reappearing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of weightlessness on posture and movement control during a whole body reaching task.

TL;DR: Preliminary results of the "Synergy" experiment performed aboard the Russian orbital station "MIR" in July 1993 indicate that the planning of the movement takes place in terms of head and hand trajectories rather than joint rotations as it was previously suggested for simple arm reaching movement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Space-by-Time Modular Decomposition Effectively Describes Whole-Body Muscle Activity During Upright Reaching in Various Directions.

TL;DR: Findings show that few spatial and temporal modules give a compact yet approximate representation of muscle patterns carrying nearly all task-relevant information for a variety of whole-body reaching movements.
