  5. Dec 1, 2014 · Mental practice with motor imagery improves motor performance, for example reducing the duration of goal-directed movements. However, it is not known whether an experimental session involving prolonged sequences of motor imagery induces mental fatigue and alters motor and mental performances.

  8. The beneficial effects of imagery on performance have been observed across many types of tasks yet, under certain conditions, imagery has been shown to negatively affect physical performances (Beilock et al., 2001). Recently, Macrea et al. (2014) demonstrated that imagining oneself performing acts requiring self-control led to impairments in ...
