Abstract
Bach (Psychological Research 2022, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00426-022-01773-w ) offer a re-conceptualisation of motor imagery, influenced by older ideas of ideomotor action and formulated in terms of action effects rather than motor output. We share the view of an essential role of action effect in action planning and motor imagery processes, but we challenge the claim that motor imagery is non-motoric in nature. In the present article, we critically review some of Bach et al.'s proposed ideas and pose questions of whether effect and motor processes are functionally separable, and if not, what mechanisms underlie motor imagery and what terminology best captures its function.
巴赫(Psychological Research 2022, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00426-022-01773-w)对运动想象进行了重新构思,这种构思受到了意念运动的旧观念的影响,并以动作效果而非动作输出的方式进行表述。我们赞同行动效应在行动规划和运动想象过程中发挥重要作用的观点,但我们对运动想象是非运动性的这一说法提出质疑。在本文中,我们对巴赫等人提出的一些观点进行了批判性的回顾,并提出了效果和运动过程在功能上是否可以分离的问题,如果不能分离,那么运动想象的基础机制是什么,以及什么术语最能概括运动想象的功能。
期刊介绍:
Psychological Research/Psychologische Forschung publishes articles that contribute to a basic understanding of human perception, attention, memory, and action. The Journal is devoted to the dissemination of knowledge based on firm experimental ground, but not to particular approaches or schools of thought. Theoretical and historical papers are welcome to the extent that they serve this general purpose; papers of an applied nature are acceptable if they contribute to basic understanding or serve to bridge the often felt gap between basic and applied research in the field covered by the Journal.
