| Abstract: | Modern ideas about the motor cortex neuronal mechanisms ensuring the initiation and correction of the instrumental manipulational movements in mammals have been analysed. A close correlation has been established to exist between the neuronal activity and various characteristics of movement including those that are not induced by muscle force. The role of somatic afferentation in the formation and realization of the movement programme is analysed as well as in motor output modulation by means of fast feedback. |
