Motor Prediction Reduces Beta-Band Power and Enhances Cerebellar–Somatosensory Connectivity before Self-Touch to Enable Its Attenuation
Motor control theories suggest that the brain uses forward models to predict self-generated tactile input during voluntary movements, thereby reducing the intensity of reafferent tactile sensations. W...
