Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research study we studied why Anxiety (緊張) affects our motor abilities. We show that increased anxiety excites cognitive motor control processes, which then interfere with low level motor control leading to a deterioration of motor performance. The sumamry of the results are 1)We designed an experiment to understand anxiety related motor deterioration in humans. 2) We understood how observation of other’s actions during sports leads to cognitive anxiety and affect one’s own motor performance. 3)We analyzed the computational processes for the above effects and, 4) investigate the neural correlates of anxiety related motor deterioration.
