Research Abstract

T wo experiments were conducted to investigate the influence of psychological perturbations on spinal reflexes during motor task execution. Facilitation of spinal reflexes by pleasant and unpleasant emotion and inhibition of spinal reflexes under psychological pressure were shown. Furthermore, two experiments were performed to investigate the effect of changes in motor cortex excitability by transcranial direct current stimulation on a quick motor response. Shorten reaction and movement times by anodal stimulation were observed, suggesting that facilitation of motor cortex excitability by using non-invasive brain stimulation could improve motor skills.
