The dynamics of sensorimotor cortical oscillations during the observation of hand movements: an EEG study.

BACKGROUND: The observation of action done by others determines a desynchronization of the rhythms recorded from cortical central regions. Here, we examined whether the observation of different types of hand movements (target directed, non-target directed, cyclic and non-cyclic) elicits different EE...
