Exploring lateralized sensorimotor processing using somatosensory evoked potentials
… data to support their findings. By utilizing somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) we can gain insight into the underlying neurological processes at the levels of the spinal cord and the cortex in response to movement and motor learning. The research conducted showed greater accuracy in the …

Assessing neurophysiological and behavioural outcomes of the proximal upper limb muscles in response to novel motor skill acquisition
… changes in neural activity, measured using somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) following a single session of motor training session with the proximal upper limb task. Additionally, sex-based differences in motor task performance were seen for the proximal upper-limb task, indicating a …

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and the influence of multisensory processes and sensorimotor integration on motor performance
… to motor learning, sensory integration, and somatosensory processing. ADHD is associated with difficulties in motor control, including alterations to neural structure and function. However, it is unknown how these characteristics may influence motor control in adulthood. Results from study …

Impact of neck muscle fatigue on upper limb sensorimotor integration
… yet investigated. Study one used short latency somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) to investigate the differential effects of CEM fatigue on motor learning and retention; and on sensorimotor processing from distal hand muscles. CEM fatigue impaired upper limb motor learning performance in …

The effects of motor task complexity on sensorimotor integration: implications for healthy and subclinical populations
… with electrophysiological techniques such as somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) which directly measure the electrical activity of neural areas involved in learning. Understanding the processes of repetitive activity and the neuromodulatory changes which occur is fundamental in order to …

Effect of neck muscle vibration on upper limb sensorimotor integration and motor performance
… afferent input from vibration impacts SMI, somatosensory processing, and proprioception. Study one used SEPs to investigate the effects of neck muscle vibration on SMI and motor learning while study two used an elbow repositioning task to investigate its effects on upper limb proprioception. …

The effect of experimental pain on neural function and motor learning
… and provided supportive evidence for early somatosensory evoked potential (SEP) peaks as markers for sensorimotor integration (SMI) and acute pain. Motor performance was better in the presence of pain pre-motor learning and motor learning retention improved in the presence of local pain. A …

The effects of forward head posture on sensorimotor integration and neck and shoulder proprioception
… compared to individuals without. Study 2, used somatosensory evoked potentials to measure cortical activity related to sensorimotor integration following a motor learning task. This study was the first to report differential changes to SEP peak amplitudes in response to acute alterations in …
