“…The SCM activation latency in the time window of 30 to 130 ms provides a convenient marker of the SE ( Carlsen et al, 2011 ; van Lith et al, 2018 ). Therefore, analyses that simultaneously incorporate SCM response time and limb muscle activity enable better dissection of RST function in motor control ( Maslovat et al, 2021 ). With this approach, researchers have revealed increased motor unit discharge ( Skarabot et al, 2022 ), additional muscle contraction ( Fernandez-Del-Olmo et al, 2014 ), a greater range of motion during motor initiation ( McInnes et al, 2020 ), and even better motor ( Rahimi and Honeycutt, 2020 ) or speech output ( Swann et al, 2022 ) in stroke survivors.…”
