Facilitation of motor imagery through movement-related cueing. Brain Res. 2009 Apr 27; Authors: Heremans E, Helsen WF, De Poel HJ, Alaerts K, Meyns P, Feys P In the past few years, the use of motor imagery as an adjunct to other forms of training has been studied extensively. However, very little attention has been paid to how imagery could be used to greatest effect. It is well known that the provision of external cues has a beneficial effect on motor skill acquisition and performance during physical practice. Since physical execution and mental imagery share several common...

Development of hierarchical structures for actions and motor imagery: a constructivist view from synthetic neuro-robotics study. Psychol Res. 2009 Apr 8; Authors: Nishimoto R, Tani J The current paper shows a neuro-robotics experiment on developmental learning of goal-directed actions. The robot was trained to predict visuo-proprioceptive flow of achieving a set of goal-directed...
