Brief summary

This study evaluates the influence of motor imagery and action observation in combination with physical practice on motor learning

Interventions

BEHAVIORALMotor imagery

This group will perform motor imagery training in combination with physical practice on motor learning of different motor tasks.

BEHAVIORALDouble time motor imagery

This group will perform motor imagery training by doubling the intervention time to the motor imagery group in combination with physical practice on motor learning of various motor tasks.

BEHAVIORALAction observation

This group will perform action observation training in combination with physical practice on motor learning of various motor tasks.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Hit ratio in a manual skill test	Change from hit ratio in a manual skill at 1 week	This main variable will be composed by the learning of a sequence of digital movements.
Free basketball shots	Change from hit ratio in free throws at 1 week	The percentage of successful basketball shots in different positions will be counted.
Standing jump	Change from distance at 1 week	Subjects shall place their feet shoulder width apart and their toes in a line on the floor. The subjects will then make a horizontal leap forward, where they are allowed to swing their arms along a tape measure attached to the floor.
