Slow potentials of the cerebral cortex and behavior.

Niels Birbaumer, Thomas Elbert, Anthony G M Canavan, Brigitte Rockstroh
Physiological reviews
1990

Successive roles of the cerebellum and premotor cortices in trajectorial learning.

Rüdiger J. Seitz, Anthony G M Canavan, +5 authors Volker Hoemberg
Neuroreport
1994

The structures of the human brain engaged during learning of unilateral trajectorial hand movements were mapped by measurements of regional cerebral blood flow. Trajectorial movement velocity… (More)

Representations of graphomotor trajectories in the human parietal cortex: evidence for controlled processing and automatic performance.

Rüdiger J. Seitz, Anthony G M Canavan, +5 authors Volker Hoemberg
The European journal of neuroscience
1997

The aim of this study was to identify the cerebral areas activated during kinematic processing of movement trajectories. We measured regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) during learning, performance… (More)

Motor learning in monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) with lesions in motor thalamus

Anthony G M Canavan, Philip D. Nixon, Richard E. Passingham
Experimental Brain Research
1989

The study examines the nature of the influence that the basal ganglia exert on frontal cortex via the motor nuclei of the thalamus. Twelve monkeys were trained to pull a handle given one colour cue… (More)

Neural correlates of visuospatial imagery

Boris Suchan, Lidia Yágüez, Gilbert Wunderlich, Anthony G M Canavan, Rüdiger J. Seitz
Behavioural Brain Research
2002

We studied changes in regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in 10 healthy right-handed subjects during a visuospatial imagery task. The subject's task consisted of drawing imagined lines connecting… (More)

The performance on learning tasks of patients in the early stages of Parkinson's disease

Anthony G M Canavan, Richard E. Passingham, C. David Marsden, Niall Quinn, C. E. Polkey
Neuropsychologia
1989

It is known that in animals learning is disrupted by caudate lesions; but there has been no agreement about whether pathology in the basal ganglia causes a similar impairment in man. Nineteen… (More)

Sequencing ability in Parkinsonians, patients with frontal lobe lesions and patients who have undergone unilateral temporal lobectomies

Anthony G M Canavan, Richard E. Passingham, C. David Marsden, Niall Quinn, C. E. Polkey
Neuropsychologia
1989

Patients in the early stages of Parkinson's disease were compared with patients who had sustained damage specific to either the frontal or temporal lobes and normal controls on a number of sequencing… (More)

Sound localization in egocentric space following hemispheric lesions

Hilary Haeske-Dewick, Anthony G M Canavan, Volker Hoemberg
Neuropsychologia
1996

In this paper the performance of patients with unilateral hemispheric lesions (n = 10 with right brain damage; n = 10 with left brain damage) on a free-field sound localization task was contrasted… (More)

A mental route to motor learning: Improving trajectorial kinematics through imagery training

Lidia Yágüez, D Nagel, Helene Hoffman, Anthony G M Canavan, Erik Andreas Wist, Volker Hoemberg
Behavioural Brain Research
1998

There are contrasting reports upon the level of effectiveness of motor imagery in learning new motor skills, but there is general consensus that motor imagery can lead to improvements in performance,… (More)

Cognitive mapping after unilateral temporal lobectomy

Laura H Goldstein, Anthony G M Canavan, C. E. Polkey
Neuropsychologia
1989

An investigation of the extension of O'KEEFE and NADEL's [The Hippocampus as a Cognitive Map. Oxford University Press, Oxford 1978] theory of hippocampal functioning is described in patients who have… (More)
