Motor Simulation Theory proposes that imagined actions are produced using the brain's motor system, and should therefore always be temporally equivalent to physical movements. However, empirical results are not always consistent with this prediction. Studies indicate that the durations of unfamiliar imagined actions are over-estimated, whereas the durations of more familiar actions may be closer to (or even faster than) actual movement execution.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the combined effects of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) and EEG-guided neurofeedback on motor and non-motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD).
- It involved a randomized controlled trial with four groups: rTMS only, neurofeedback only, both treatments together, and a control group with no intervention, measuring outcomes through the UPDRS-III and other assessments.
- Results showed that the combination therapy was most effective in reducing motor symptoms and improving quality of life, although it did not significantly impact functional mobility or depression.
Combined non-invasive neuromodulation using transcranial direct current stimulation, motor imagery and action observation for motor, cognitive and functional recovery in cortico-basal degeneration: a single case study.

This case report presents a comprehensive assessment and therapeutic intervention using non-invasive motor cortex neuromodulation for a 70-year-old female patient diagnosed with corticobasal degeneration (CBD). The study followed the CARE guidelines. The patient meets the criteria for probable CBD, with neuroimaging evidence of exclusively cortical impairment.

Researchers from multiple disciplines have studied the simulation of actions through motor imagery, action observation, or their combination. Procedures used in these studies vary considerably between research groups, and no standardized approach to reporting experimental protocols has been proposed. This has led to under-reporting of critical details, impairing the assessment, replication, synthesis, and potential clinical translation of effects.
