Sequential Organization of Multiple Movements: Involvement of Cortical Motor Areas
Abstract
▪ Abstract Much of our normal behavior depends on the sequential execution of multiphased movements, or the execution of multiple movements arranged in a correct temporal order. This article deals with the issue of motor selection to arrange multiple movements in an appropriate temporal order, rather than the issue of constructing spatio-temporal structures in a single action. Planning, generating, and controlling the sequential motor behavior involves multiple cortical and subcortical neural structures. Studies on human subjects and nonhuman primates, however, have revealed that the medial motor areas in the frontal cortex and the basal ganglia play particularly important roles in the temporal sequencing of multiple movements. Cellular activity observed in the supplementary and presupplementary motor areas while performing specifically designed motor tasks suggests the way in which these areas take part in constructing the time structure for the sequential execution of multiple movements.

“Transient Chemical Inactivation Two recent studies attempted to inactivate the portions of the medial frontal cortex now defined as the presupplementary motor area (pre-SMA) (see Matsuzaka et al 1992; cf Luppino et al 1991) and the newly defined SMA (Tanji 1996) transiently.”

“It is not yet known, however, whether the cerebellar activation observed during performance of sequential motor tasks (Seitz & Roland 1992, Doyon et al 1998) indicates its extensive involvement in coordinating or stabilizing movements (Thach et al 1992) or whether it suggests possible cerebellar…”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
