Sensorimotor prediction is used to direct gaze toward task-relevant locations in a goal-directed throwing task.

Previous research has shown that action effects of self-generated movements are internally predicted before outcome feedback becomes available. To test whether these sensorimotor predictions are used to facilitate visual information uptake for feedback processing, we measured eye movements during the execution of a goal-directed throwing task. Participants could fully observe the effects of their throwing actions (ball trajectory and either hitting or missing a target) in most of the trials.

A primitive-based representation of dance: modulations by experience and perceptual validity.

The generation of complex movements such as dance might be possible due to the utilization of movement building blocks, i.e., movement primitives.

The multisensory nature of human action imagery.

Imagination can appeal to all our senses and may, therefore, manifest in very different qualities (e.g., visual, tactile, proprioceptive, or kinesthetic).

Additional cognitive load decreases performance but not adaptation to a visuomotor transformation.

Dual-task paradigms are procedures for investigating interference with two tasks performed simultaneously. Studies that previously addressed dual-task paradigms within a visuomotor reaching task yielded mixed results. While some of the studies found evidence of cognitive interference, called dual-task costs, other studies did not.
