Motor Decision-Making as a Common Denominator in Motor Pathology and a Possible Rehabilitation Target

 

Motivation is extremely easy to understand and implement. 

Write up 100% recovery protocols on this and survivors will do the millions of reps needed, no external motivation required. You don't understand one goddamn thing about stroke survivors, DO YOU? The problem is stroke researchers are not motivated to solve stroke. What the fuck is your solution to that failure? We still don't know how to motivate stroke medical 'professionals' to solve stroke to 100% recovery!

 

Motor Decision-Making as a Common Denominator in Motor Pathology and a Possible Rehabilitation Target

Abstract

Despite the substantial progress in motor rehabilitation, patient involvement and motivation remain major challenges. They are typically addressed with communicational and environmental strategies, as well as with improved goal-setting procedures. Here we suggest a new research direction and framework involving Neuroeconomics principles to investigate the role of Motor Decision-Making (MDM) parameters in motivational component and motor performance in rehabilitation. We argue that investigating NE principles could bring new approaches aimed at increasing active patient engagement in the rehabilitation process by introducing more movement choice, and adapting existing goal-setting procedures. We discuss possible MDM implementation strategies and illustrate possible research directions using examples of stroke and psychiatric disorders.
