A validation of neural co-activation as a measure of attentional focus in a postural task

A validation of neural co-activation as a measure of attentional focus in a postural task

Highlights • Neural co-activation between verbal-analytical and motor areas was measured. • Co-activation was sensitive to voluntary changes in attentional focus. • Findings support validity of co-activations as a measure of attention during posture. • There were no between-group (high/low-reinvestm...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Neural co-activation between verbal-analytical and motor areas was measured. • Co-activation was sensitive to voluntary changes in attentional focus. • Findings support validity of co-activations as a measure of attention during posture. • There were no between-group (high/low-reinvestment) differences. • Co-activation may not provide an indication of trait-reinvestment during posture.
