Coupled versus decoupled visuomotor feedback: Differential frontoparietal activity during curved reach planning on simultaneous functional near‐infrared spectroscopy and electroencephalography
Abstract Introduction Interacting with the environment requires the planning and execution of reach‐to‐target movements along given reach trajectory paths. Human neural mechanisms for the motor planning of linear, or point‐to‐point, reaching movements are relatively well studied. However, the corres...

description | Abstract Introduction Interacting with the environment requires the planning and execution of reach‐to‐target movements along given reach trajectory paths. Human neural mechanisms for the motor planning of linear, or point‐to‐point, reaching movements are relatively well studied. However, the corresponding representations for curved and more complex reaching movements require further investigation. Additionally, the visual and proprioceptive feedback of hand positioning can be spatially and sequentially coupled in alignment (e.g., directly reaching for an object), termed coupled visuomotor feedback, or spatially decoupled (e.g., dragging the computer mouse forward to move the cursor upward), termed decoupled visuomotor feedback. During reach planning, visuomotor processing routes may differ across feedback types. Methods We investigated the involvement of the frontoparietal regions, including the superior parietal lobule (SPL), dorsal premotor cortex (PMd), and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC), in curved reach planning under different feedback conditions. Participants engaged in two delayed‐response reaching tasks with identical starting and target position sets but different reach trajectory paths (linear or curved) under two feedback conditions (coupled or decoupled). Neural responses in frontoparietal regions were analyzed using a combination of functional near‐infrared spectroscopy and electroencephalography. Results The results revealed that, regarding the cue period, curved reach planning had a higher hemodynamic response in the left SPL and bilateral PMd and a smaller high‐beta power in the left parietal regions than linear reach planning. Regarding the delay period, higher hemodynamic responses during curved reach planning were observed in the right dlPFC for decoupled feedback than those for coupled feedback. Conclusion These findings suggest the crucial involvement of both SPL and PMd activities in trajectory‐path processing for curved reach planning. Moreover, the dlPFC may be especially involved in the planning of curved reaching movements under decoupled feedback conditions. Thus, this study provides insight into the neural mechanisms underlying reaching function via different feedback conditions. |
