Strength as a factor influencing mirror movements

摘要: Abstract A finger flexion task was used to investigate intensity of mirror movement. Subjects were asked maintain target forces, with either their index or small finger, that represented 25, 50 75 percent maximum strength capacity for the performing task. Relative force produced, males and females exhibited same amount However, movement relative exerted greater when left hand performed task, a finding consistent previous research. Greater amounts recorded movements compared cortical activation explanation (Todor Lazarus, 1986). These results suggest differences are not principal determinant Rather, differing functional roles hands fingers, reflecting in organisation, appear mediate occurrence.
