Motor evoked potentials were recorded from FDI during single pulse TMS of the motor cortex while participants performed imagery: first, and third, person imagery of continuous left-right finger movements, a ball moving up-down on a monitor, and their hand in a static position (baseline). Our baseline, therefore, was defined as a first person perspective of the hand but without motion. Participants reported visual imagery in all conditions, with half also reporting some kinaesthetic imagery during first person finger movements. Third person imagery elicited the largest potentials, which were significantly larger than baseline

Abstract
Motor evoked potentials were recorded from FDI during single pulse TMS of the motor cortex while participants performed imagery: first, and third, person imagery of continuous left-right finger movements, a ball moving up-down on a monitor, and their hand in a static position (baseline). Our baseline, therefore, was defined as a first person perspective of the hand but without motion. Participants reported visual imagery in all conditions, with half also reporting some kinaesthetic imagery during first person finger movements. Third person imagery elicited the largest potentials, which were significantly larger than baselineI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
