Abstract Practice conditions that replicate performance environments can enhance motor learning. Dyad practice, where learners alternate between physical practice and observing a partner, offers a promising approach to m...

Abstract This study explores the use of an upper-limb wearable exoskeleton for teaching violin technique to novices through haptic-assisted training. The educational potential of this technology was evaluated using a fra...

Introduction. In recent days, electric vehicles, robotics and in many control system applications, permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) are widely utilized. Problem. Due to non-linear behavior of system, external ...

Background: Motor competence is a key component of physical education, integrating motor skill proficiency and game understanding. However, instructional approaches often separate technical skill development from its con...

Background and Study Aim. Physical education traditionally focuses on the development of motor skills as a core educational objective. At the same time, physical education lessons may also contribute to the development o...

Objective: This paper tackles the cross-sessions variability of electroencephalography-based brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) in order to avoid the lengthy recalibration step of the decoding method before every use. Meth...

Autism Spectrum Disorder is a neurodevelopmental disorder with onset in early childhood and its diagnosis often requires clinical processes based on long, subjective observations. Although early diagnosis and interventio...

La capacidad de utilizar algoritmos para resolver problemas del mundo real es una habilidad imprescindible para cualquier desarrollador o programador. Este libro le ayudará no solo a desarrollar la capacidad de seleccio...

Las habilidades y destrezas básicas son aquellos movimientos que se llevan a cabo de forma natural y que suponen la estructura cinética primaria que todo ser humano requiere como soporte de su vida, al margen de que si...

La irrupción y posterior consolidación de las llamadas Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación (TIC) y de las Tecnologías del Aprendizaje y Conocimiento (TAC), están transformando a gran velocidad todo lo rel...

University physical education (PE) is increasingly expected to foster physical literacy by integrating movement competence with cognitive understanding and intrinsic motivation. However, rigorous evidence regarding the e...

Contrary to its well-established role in declarative learning, the impact of sleep on motor memory consolidation remains a subject of debate. Current literature suggests that while motor skill learning benefits from slee...

ObjectivesThis article proposes a specific program of sequences of combinations of movements (SCM) based on motor development stages (MDS) to optimize the sports performance of elite professional athletes (EPAs).DesignNa...

The purpose of the study was to determine if a generalized motor program (GMP) exists for writing, as has been previously reported. Beginning with a 1942 experiment by Lashley, and continuing with a 1976 (Raibert) exampl...

Auditory-perceptual sensitivity to acoustic variation, referred to as auditory acuity, plays a central role in children's speech development. In speech perception, auditory acuity determines the acceptable phonetic varia...

Background: Dribbling is a fundamental basketball skill essential for maintaining ball control and adapting to dynamic game situations. However, young athletes often demonstrate suboptimal dribbling performance, highligh...

Introduction Despite advances in acute treatment, stroke remains the first cause of acquired disability. Today, there is no effective pharmacological therapy to improve recovery beyond the acute phase. Preclinical studie...

Abstract Background Prenatal education improves maternal and neonatal outcomes. Ultrasound-guided visual biofeedback provides real-time visualization of fetal head movement, enabling expectant mothers to refine their pus...

Since the beginning of the century, feedback interventions (FIs) produced negative—but largely ignored—effects on performance. A meta-analysis (607 effect sizes; 23,663 observations) suggests that FIs improved perfor...

Background: Students with quadriplegia often encounter significant barriers to participation in physical education due to limited mobility and the lack of structured adaptive learning models. Despite the potential of boc...

Abstract Synchronous reluctance motors (SynRMs) are increasingly critical in industrial and traction applications due to their high efficiency, magnet-free construction, and thermal robustness. However, fault diagnosis f...

Background: The rapid digital transformation in education necessitates the development of interactive learning media, particularly in physical education domains such as basketball, which require the integration of motor...

Growing evidence suggests that non-motor symptoms (NMS) in Parkinson’s disease (PD) have differential progression patterns that have a different natural history from motor progression and may be geographically influenc...
