Perception in motor rehabilitation after stroke

Animals and humans show a remarkable ability to recognize movements in complex visual scenes, and this recognition is facilitated by specialized brain mechanisms that detect biological motion. Human psychophysical studies demonstrate that configural information improves recognition of movement. Basic and clinical research provides evidence that for learning and relearning to drive measurable change in neural architecture, activities must be highly attended repeated, rewarded, and carried out over time. More intense physical therapy, i.e., a greater amount of therapy time per day, following stroke produced more improvement in activities of daily living and impairments than less intense intervention. On the other hand, rehabilitation combined with perception stimulation can further improve rehabilitation outcome. The Mozart effect, i.e. the known fact that listening to the music of Mozart can lead to improved performance on spatial ability test is an excellent example of the use of auditory perception in rehabilitation after stroke...
