Visual inference of arm movement is constrained by motor representations by Saunier, Ghislain, Paillard, Aurore, Vargas, Claudia D., Pozzo, Thierry

“…Our study highlighted a direction effect: endpoint prediction accuracy was better to infer the final position of horizontal motion directed toward the median line of human body. This finding suggests that the spatial prediction of endpoint is mapped onto implicit biomechanical knowledge such as joint limitation. …”
