Plastic corollary discharge predicts sensory consequences of movements in a cerebellum-like circuit.
Forward predictions are not only crucial to predict somatosensory consequences of movements, but may also guide cross-modal sensory mapping (Ramnani, 2006).
Analyzing the locomotor behavior of visibly ataxic mice with cerebellar defects has revealed specific, cerebellum-dependent features of locomotor coordination that suggest that cerebellar ataxia results from an inability to predict the consequences of movements across the body.
For instance, it has been suggested [29] that the cerebellum incorporates a forward model that predicts the sensory consequences of movements.
This is because the exteroceptive (e.g. visual) consequences of movements are the same and all we have to do is to suppress the proprioceptive predictions.
It is thought the cerebellum contributes to fast and flexible motor control by predicting the sensory consequences of movements on a fine timescale, and that these predictions are available before visual or proprioceptive feedback from the executed actions [2,4].

These vestibular effects have been ascribed to the consequences of movement through the high magnetic field.
Given that abnormalities have been reported in predicting the visual consequences of movement, we suspect that the cerebellum broadly participates in perception when motor output is required (i.e., active perception).
These developments are revolutionizing the scope and scale of questions that can be asked about the causes and consequences of movement and are redefining how we view and manage individuals, populations, and entire ecosystems.
Where anatomically might abnormal prior beliefs related to (the sensory consequences of) movement reside?
In active inference, they are the sensory consequences of movement, which then undergo automatic peripheral transformation into motor commands.
