Effects of an external compared to an internal focus of attention on the excitability of fast and slow(er) motor pathways

Abstract The neurophysiological mechanisms underlying the behavioural improvements usually associated with an external (EF) compared with an internal focus of attention (IF) remain poorly investigated. Surround inhibition in the primary cortex has been shown to be more pronounced with an EF, indicat...
