Fig. 4

Changes in reciprocal inhibition (RI) over time. A shows conditioning stimulation-test stimulation interval (CT-interval) 2 ms, and B shows CT-interval 20 ms. The following four conditions are shown: a, control; b, forward attention; c, monitor attention; and d, ankle joint attention. The thin solid line shows the change over time in 20 participants, and the thick solid line shows the average value. The vertical axis shows the amplitude of the conditioning H-reflex/amplitude of the test H-reflex × 100. The horizontal axis shows the time points before the attention condition intervention (Pre), immediately after the intervention (Post), and 5 (Post 5), 10 (Post 10), 20 (Post 20), and 30 (Post 30) mins after the intervention. Bonferroni correction was applied to the paired t test for the comparison of Pre with the other measurement times. Filled circles are values that were not significantly different from Pre. Open circles are values that were significantly different from Pre (p < 0.05)
