Marchant, David Christopher. "The effects of internally and externally directed attention during motor skill execution and learning." Thesis, University of Hull, 2005. http://hydra.hull.ac.uk/resources/hull:11168.

Full text

Abstract:

Focusing attention onto the intended outcome or goal of a movement (an External focus of attention) has been shown to be more beneficial to the learning and performance of movements than focusing onto the components of the movement being carried out (an Internal focus of attention). In this thesis, four studies assessed the effects of attentional focusing strategies on the learning and execution of motor skills during different situations. Study 1 demonstrated that an internal focus of attention during a suprapostural pointing task resulted in degraded postural control as well as larger moveme

Abstract:

We learn and perform precise motor sequences to interact with the environment. This ability underlies much of what we do, from playing musical instruments and using new tools to producing fluent speech. Understanding the neural circuits involved in producing these sequences is a central objective of the field of motor learning. In this dissertation, I study the role of the basal ganglia in complex motor sequence learning and execution, and how they coordinate with the rest of the brain to fulfill both functions. First, I investigate whether the striatum is involved in complex sequence execut

Abstract:

2013 - 2014<br>How the brain controls movement is a question that has fascinated researchers from different areas as neuroscience, robotics and psychology. To understand how we move is not only an intellectual challenge, but it is important for finding new strategies for nursing people with movement diseases, for rehabilitation and to develop new robotic technology. While there is an agreement about the role of the primary motor cortex (M1) in the execution of voluntary movements, it is still debated what (and how) is encoded by the neural activity of the motor cortex.

Abstract:

Expectation has been studied extensively in the decision-making field and its possible implementation in influential decision-making models has been formulated. Decision-making has historically been studied separately to motor planning. However, recent data suggest decisionmaking and motor planning overlap in time, with competing action plans in motor cortex biased by the ongoing decision. There has therefore been increasing interest in studying the interplay between decision-making and motor planning. Past experiments have typically studied the decision between two movements, when each moveme

Abstract:

Non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries during sidestepping occur when the imposed knee joint loading exceeds the load tolerance of the tissues. The load tolerance thresholds can be modified with appropriate training (e.g., resistance training and plyometrics) and thus increase injury resilience. However, despite such insights, the incidence of ACL injury has not decreased in recent years. Injury is of particular concern for female athletes who present with significantly higher rates than male athletes. Understanding how different constraints shape an athlete’s movement strategy

Abstract:

In this thesis, we study the problem of buying or selling a given volume of a financial asset within a given time horizon to the best possible price, a problem formally known as optimized trade execution. Our approach is an empirical one. We use historical data to simulate the process of placing artificial orders in a market. This simulation enables us to model the problem as a Markov decision process (MDP). Given this MDP, we train and evaluate a set of reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms all with the objective to minimize the transaction cost on unseen test data. We train and evaluate the

Assessment of motor performance and motor learning in dyslexia is crucial because of its ability to shed light on the underlying biology of the disorder and to discriminate between theoretical approaches. It remains a controversial area due to existing discrepant research findings and interpretations. Three studies are described in this thesis. The first used three sets of experiments to test balance and postural control in single and dual-task conditions. The second study examined the production and timing of responses in a classical eyeblink conditioning paradigm. The final study investigate

Abstract:

Principles of motor learning (PMLs) refer to a set of concepts which are considered to facilitate the process of motor learning. PMLs can be broadly grouped into principles based on (1) the structure of practice/treatment, and (2) the nature of feedback provided during practice/treatment. Application of PMLs is most evident in studies involving non-speech- motor tasks (e.g., limb movement). However, only a few studies have investigated the application of PMLs in speech-motor tasks. Previous studies relating to speech-motor function have highlighted two primary limitations: (1) Failure to consi

There is a rich literature demonstrating that adults who stutter (AWS) demonstrate atypical functional brain activity during speech production. These differences can be characterized by increased activity in the right inferior frontal gyrus and premotor regions and decreased activity in the left inferior frontal gyrus, premotor area, and bilaterally in the superior temporal gyrus. The process of speech production requires motor movements first be planned and then executed. However, few studies have

Some of these such as Hebbian plasticity or plasticity following repeated activation of a connection have been studied in detail in animal preparations.

After prolonged learning we all have experienced a reduction of alertness, resulting in errors that we would normally not make. Despite this being a common situation in everyday life, the reasons for this phenomenon are unclear. A possible explanation is that the regions of the brain which are involved in the learning, go off-line trying to partially recover. This event is defined as local sleep and it has been detected in animals and sleep-deprived humans performing learning tasks. Local sleep is a sleep-like electrophysiological activity occurring locally, while the rest of the brain is full
