Singing as a form of vocal imitation - Mechanisms and deficits
There has been a recent upsurge of interest in the neural and cognitive bases of inaccurate singing, commonly referred to as “tone deafness.” Explanations of this deficit have commonly focused on perceptual and motor functions. It is clear, however, that neither of these mechanisms can fully account for deficits in singing. We summarize the results of several studies concerning inaccurate, or “poor pitch” singing. Taken together, the results of these studies argue that the basis for singing-related deficits lies in the link between perception and action, rather than strictly motoric or perceptual factors. Moreover, singing deficits may involve general purpose vocal imitation mechanisms, rather than mechanisms that are specific to music.

Neural mechanisms of bilateral deficit in maximal force production in specific groups of athletes
Skarabot, Jakob (2016)The mechanisms of bilateral deficit (BLD) have been studied extensively, but remain obscure. Neural mechanisms have been proposed, including interhemispheric inhibition (IHI). In this study specific groups of athletes who ... -

The Effects of Cold Water Immersion on the Recovery of Drop Jump Performance and Mechanics : A Pilot Study in Under-20 Soccer Players
Kositsky, Adam; Avela, Janne (Frontiers Media, 2020)Cold water immersion (CWI) is a popular method used for enhancing recovery from exercise. However, the efficacy of this approach is inconclusive and studies investigating variables contributing to overall performance are ... -
Arm swing during skating at different skiing speeds affects skiing mechanics and performance
Göpfert, Caroline; Lindinger, Stefan J.; Ohtonen, Olli; Rapp, Walter; Müller, Erich; Linnamo, Vesa (Wiley, 2018)Arm swing has been shown to lead to greater maximal speed and movement economy in cross -country skiing. The current study aimed to investigate how arm swing alters skiing mechanics and contributes to performance and ... -
Exercise intervention protocol in children and young adults with cerebral palsy : the effects of strength, flexibility and gait training on physical performance, neuromuscular mechanisms and cardiometabolic risk factors (EXECP)
Valadão, Pedro; Piitulainen, Harri; Haapala, Eero A.; Parviainen, Tiina; Avela, Janne; Finni, Taija (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2021)Background Individuals with cerebral palsy (CP) have problems in everyday tasks such as walking and climbing stairs due to a combination of neuromuscular impairments such as spasticity, muscle weakness, reduced joint ...
