EMG Remains Fractionated in Parkinson's Disease, Despite Practice-Related Improvements in Performance (D. Flament, D. E. Vaillancourt, T. Kempf, et al.) Clinical Neurophysiology (2003)

Objective: We studied the ability of patients with Parkinson's disease to improve their performance in a motor task requiring both speed and accuracy in the execution of elbow flexion movements. Our goal was to investigate ...

Time Course and Temporal Order of Changes in Movement Kinematics During Motor Learning: Effect of Joint and Instruction (T. Kempf, D. M. Corcos and D. Flament) Experimental Brain Research (2001)

Learning a motor task is associated with specific changes in movement kinematics. Recently, it has been shown that changes in different kinematic parameters occurred with different time courses for subjects who practiced simple, single-joint elbow ...

Time Course and Temporal Order of Changes in Movement Kinematics During Learning of Fast and Accurate Elbow Flexions (D. Flament, M. B. Shapiro, T. Kempf, et al.) Experimental Brain Research (1999)

Learning of a motor task, such as making accurate goal-directed movements, is associated with a number of changes in limb kinematics and in the EMG activity that produces the movement. Some of these changes include ...

Changes in Movement Parameters Occur at Different Rates When Learning a Wrist Movement (T. Kempf, D. M. Corcos and D. Flament) 9th Annual Meeting of the Society for the Neural Control of Movement (1999)
