Worry tendencies predict brain activation during aversive imagery.

19 Jun 2009 Because of its abstract nature, worrying might function as an avoidance response in order to cognitively disengage from fearful imagery. The present functional magnetic resonance imaging study investigated neural correlates of aversive imagery and ...

Evaluation of the effective connectivity of supplementary motor areas during motor imagery using Granger causality mapping.

16 Jun 2009 Brain activation during motor imagery has been studied extensively for years, but only a few of these studies focused on investigating the effective connectivity in the brain. The existence of interactions or closed loop circuits between the SMA and ...

Cortical interactive network during mental rotation of Chinese character.

15 Jun 2009 Mental rotation (MR) of Chinese characters has been proposed to employ distinct strategies depending on task difficulty. Cognitive process in MR is associated with multi-component neural networks, and elucidation of specific cortical interactions ...

Single-trial discrimination of type and speed of wrist movements from EEG recordings.

14 Jun 2009 OBJECTIVE: The study explored the possibility of identifying movement type and speed from EEG recordings. METHODS: EEG signals were acquired from 9 healthy volunteers during imagination of four tasks of the right wrist that involved two speeds (fast ...

Tool responsive regions in the posterior parietal cortex: effect of differences in motor goal and target object during imagined transitive movements.

8 Jun 2009 Neuroanatomical and functional studies have proposed a functional segregation of the human dorsal stream into a dorso-dorsal pathway, believed to serve as an object-independent stream involved with on-line control of action, and a ventro-dorsal ...

Influence of touching an object on corticospinal excitability during motor imagery.

5 Jun 2009 We investigated whether corticospinal excitability during the imagery of an action involving an external object was influenced by actually touching the object. Corticospinal excitability was assessed by monitoring motor evoked potentials (MEPs) in ...

The effect of tactile discrimination training is enhanced when patients watch the reflected image of their unaffected limb during training.

4 Jun 2009 In patients with phantom limb pain or complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), sensory discrimination training increases tactile acuity, normalises cortical reorganisation and decreases pain. In healthy people, sensory cortical response, and tactile ...

Episodic simulation of future events is impaired in mild Alzheimer's disease.

31 May 2009 Recent neuroimaging studies have demonstrated that both remembering the past and simulating the future activate a core neural network including the medial temporal lobes. Regions of this network, in particular the medial temporal lobes, are prime ...

Psychometric quality of a revised version Vividness of Visual Imagery Questionnaire.

30 May 2009 In this study, reliability and construct validity of the Vividness of Visual Imagery Questionnaire (VVIQ) and of a revised version, the Vividness of Visual Imagery Questionnaire-2 (VVIQ-2) were assessed with a total of 279 undergraduate psychology ...

Mirror neurons and embodied simulation in the development of archetypes and self-agency.

30 May 2009 In this paper I explore the role of mirror neurons and motor intentionality in the development of self-agency. I suggest that this will also give us a firmer basis for an emergent view of archetypes, as key components in the development trajectory ...
