0 the process in which nerve endings in the muscles and joints are stimulated (= made to operate) when the body moves, so that a person is aware of their body's position
This result shows that "blind-touch" can also be generalized to proprioception.
One further line of evidence of the reach-look synergy comes from studies where limb proprioception is manipulated as well as vision of limb and target.
Age-dependent changes in visual perception and proprioception have been demonstrated and degenerative changes in the vestibular receptor organs and vestibular nerve fibres have been reported.
This is revealed both visually (seeing proprioception at work, and knowing how it works) and in the music (hearing proprioception at work).
And the two possibilities are (a) the body (yielding real proprioception and kinesthesis), and (b) a body emulator (yielding faux proprioception and kinesthesis).
With progression, some have vibration and proprioception loss, abnormal saccades, nystagmus, ophthalmoparesis, mild optic atrophy, hypertonia (usually early), hypotonia (later), and decreased deep tendon reflexes.
The importance of proprioception in action is well documented.
By contrast, motor imagery is a sequence of faux proprioception and kinesthesis.
