| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Social-evaluative situations (e.g., public music performance) can elicit performance anxiety and temporarily deteriorate fine motor skills mainly through changes in force output. The present study examined the neural mechanisms underlying the facilitating effects of performance anxiety on force output. Functional brain imaging data suggested that incoherent activity patterns in the action-observation network mediates the effects of performance anxiety on force output. Social-evaluative situations may induce perceived incoherence between one’s and others’ intentions leading to incoherence in this network, which could ultimately perturb motor output.
