Implicit Motor Imagery Performance in Childhood Recurrent Headaches

Öz

This study aims to investigate the implicit motor imagery capacities in children with recurrent headaches. The research included children with recurring headaches and children of a comparable age to the control group. The dominant hand, headache localization, intensity, and symptoms accompanying the headache were all determined, in addition to implicit motor imagery abilities and the demographic features of the children participating in the study. These results were compared by measuring the patients' and control groups' right and left lateralization accuracy percentages and response times. According to the study's findings, the group with recurrent headaches had the worse right and left discrimination accuracy percentages and decision-making times, notably in implicit motor imagery performances, than the control group. As a result, whereas children with recurrent headaches have high implicit motor imagery decision-making rates linked to proprioception, they may have impaired accurate decision-making capabilities.
