Currently, we’re investigating new types of AOMI training in Virtual Reality. Data collection is ongoing and we hope to present our data at next year’s FEPSAC conference in Münster, Germany. More soon.
Transition phases
Although I love being a researcher, it’s also difficult from time to time. And here is one reason why.
Continue reading “Transition phases”Motor imagery during action observation
Combining action observation with motor imagery, in brief doing AOMI, meaning to imagine a motor action whilst observing it, is currently a highly researched topic to which we’ve contributed just recently. Continue reading “Motor imagery during action observation”

Developmental aspects of imagery
Does mental practice by way of motor imagery training work for children and young adults, both in sports and physical education settings? Continue reading “Developmental aspects of imagery”
Imagery in physical education
Together with Dr. Andrea Menze-Sonneck, I realized a study in a physical education setting, with imagery tailored to the needs of a physical education class. Continue reading “Imagery in physical education”
Postdoctoral studies, from cognition to perception
Taking a perceptual-cognitive perspective on motor action, I started investigating perceptual variables related to the cognitive ones we’ve been interested in so far.

Postdoctoral studies, from individuals to groups and teams
Some time ago, a student stepped into my office, with thoughts on mental practice for futsal teams in his mind.

Postdoctoral studies, from real world to virtual reality
Virtual Reality is a great method for psychological research. Continue reading “Postdoctoral studies, from real world to virtual reality”
RIO
Together with Dr. Adam Bruton, Dr. Daniel Eaves and Dr. David Wright, I am currently one of the RIO organizers. The Research in Imagery and Observation (RIO) group is open to anyone interested in Imagery and Observation research, see here.
