Journal ArticleDOI
Do imagined and executed actions share the same neural substrate
TL;DR: This paper addresses the issue of the functional correlates of motor imagery, using mental chronometry, monitoring the autonomic responses and measuring cerebral blood flow in humans to provide converging support for the hypothesis that imagined and executed actions share, to some extent, the same central structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mentally simulated movements in virtual reality: does Fitts's law hold in motor imagery?
Jean Decety,Marc Jeannerod +1 more
TL;DR: The results support the notion that mentally simulated actions in a virtual reality environment are governed by central motor rules.

TL;DR: MITS elements of successful interventions were individual, supervised and non-directed sessions, added after physical practice, and dominant in the Psychology literature, in interventions focusing on motor and strength-related tasks, in intervention with participants aged 20 to 29 years old, and in MI interventions including participants of both genders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interference effects demonstrate distinct roles for visual and motor imagery during the mental representation of human action.
TL;DR: The results suggest that the modality of representation recruited to generate images of human action is dependent on the dynamic relationship between the individual, movement, and environment.

Motor imagery of gait: a quantitative approach
TL;DR: A new experimental protocol to quantify imagery of gait, by behaviourally distinguishing it from visual imagery (VI) processes and by showing its temporal correspondence with actual gait is described, demonstrates a high temporal correspondence between imagined and AW, and suggests that MI taps into similar cerebral resources as those used duringactual gait.
