Action processing in the motor system: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) evidence of shared mechanisms in the visual and linguistic modalities
The effect of manipulating action observation variables on corticospinal excitability using transcranial magnetic stimulation
Action observation interventions have been shown to contribute to improvements in motor performance and (re)learning. This thesis examined the effect of manipulating action observation variables on…
Boosting and Decreasing Action Prediction Abilities Through Excitatory and Inhibitory tDCS of Inferior Frontal Cortex
TLDR
This study shows for the first time that down- and up-regulating excitability within the motor system can hinder and enhance AP abilities, respectively and support predictive coding theories of action perception and have implications for enhancement of AP abilities.
Emotional categorization of objects: A novel clustering approach and the effect of depression
The Shape of Creativity
TLDR
The purpose of the paper is to summarise the points made in the Shapes 3.0 presentation and to promote further discussion and consideration of some of the connections drawn.

Temporary interference in human lateral premotor cortex suggests dominance for the selection of movements. A study using transcranial magnetic stimulation.
TLDR
It is concluded that the premotor cortex is important for selecting movements after a visual cue and that the left hemisphere is dominant for the rapid selection of action.
Timing of activity in early visual cortex as revealed by transcranial magnetic stimulation.
To determine the timing of visual processing in the early visual cortex, we applied single pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation to the occipital pole of healthy subjects while they were engaged in…
Unconscious response priming by shape depends on geniculostriate visual projection
TLDR
Feedforward sweep of processing from V1/V2 to LO (90 ms and above) is necessary for unconscious priming of shape, whereas conscious perception requires also the contribution of recurrent (feedback) processing.
Representation of Manipulable Man-Made Objects in the Dorsal Stream
TLDR
The left ventral premotor region that responded selectively to tools in the current study may be the human homolog of the monkey canonical F5 area, which responds to the visual presentation of graspable objects.
Corticospinal Facilitation during Observation of Graspable Objects: A Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Study
TLDR
The time-course of the “affordance effect” elicited by the observation of everyday-life graspable objects on motor cortex of resting observers is explored by means of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and modulation was proved to be specific to the cortical representations of synergic muscles.
The chronometry of visual perception: Review of occipital TMS masking studies
Time Course of Functional Connectivity between Dorsal Premotor and Contralateral Motor Cortex during Movement Selection
TLDR
The results illustrate the importance of PMd not only in facilitating cued movements but also in suppressing movements that have been prepared but are not used.
Does visual perception of object afford action? Evidence from a neuroimaging study
Object representation in the ventral premotor cortex (area F5) of the monkey.
TLDR
Object shape is coded in F5 even when a response to that object is not required, and the possible visual or motor nature of this object coding is discussed.
