Bimanual coordination: an unbalanced field of research

SS Obhi - Motor Control, 2004 - journals.humankinetics.com

most important abilities that human beings possess. In many everyday tasks, the hands, in …

A cognitive neuroscience perspective on bimanual coordination and interference

R Ivry, J Diedrichsen, R Spencer, E Hazeltine… - … determinants of interlimb …, 2004 - Springer
We argue that bimanual coordination and interference depends critically on how these
actions are represented on a cognitive level. We first review the literature on spatial …

participants were tested on a bimanual force production task. The participants produced …

Development of temporal and spatial bimanual coordination during childhood

BJ de Boer, CLE Peper, PJ Beek - Motor control, 2012 - journals.humankinetics.com
Developmental changes in bimanual coordination were examined in four age groups: 6/7,

Bimanual coordination: constraints imposed by the relative timing of homologous muscle activation

Y Li, O Levin, RG Carson, SP Swinnen - Experimental Brain Research, 2004 - Springer
It has often been supposed that patterns of rhythmic bimanual coordination in which
homologous muscles are engaged simultaneously, are performed in a more stable manner …

Temporal coupling is more robust than spatial coupling: an investigation of interlimb coordination after stroke

DK Rose, CJ Winstein - Journal of motor behavior, 2013 - Taylor & Francis
Interlimb coordination obtained through temporal and spatial coupling is a significant feature
of human motor control. To understand the robustness of this capability the authors …

Visual feedback reduces bimanual coupling of movement amplitudes, but not of directions

S Cardoso de Oliveira, S Barthélémy - Experimental brain research, 2005 - Springer
To what extent does visual feedback shape the coordination between our arms? As a first
step towards answering this question, this study compares bimanual coupling in …
