Automatic imitation: A meta-analysis.
Automatic imitation is the finding that movement execution is facilitated by compatible and
impeded by incompatible observed movements. In the past 15 years, automatic imitation has …

Effects of action observation on corticospinal excitability: Muscle specificity, direction, and timing of the mirror response
Many human behaviours and pathologies have been attributed to the putative mirror neuron
system, a neural system that is active during both the observation and execution of actions …

Kinematics fingerprints of leader and follower role-taking during cooperative joint actions
Performing online complementary motor adjustments is quintessential to joint actions since it
allows interacting people to coordinate efficiently and achieve a common goal. We sought to …

You smell dangerous: communicating fight responses through human chemosignals of aggression
The ability to detect conspecifics that represent a potential harm for an individual represents
a high survival benefit. Humans communicate socially relevant information using all sensory …

Low or high-level motor coding? The role of stimulus complexity
L Amoruso, A Finisguerra - Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2019 - frontiersin.org
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) studies have shown that observing an action
induces activity in the onlooker's motor system. In light of the muscle specificity and time …

Interpersonal motor coordination during joint actions in children with and without autism spectrum disorder: The role of motor information
Background Kinematics plays a key role in action prediction, imitation and joint action
coordination. Despite people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) show a failure to use …

Prejudiced interactions: implicit racial bias reduces predictive simulation during joint action with an out-group avatar
During social interactions people automatically apply stereotypes in order to rapidly
categorize others. Racial differences are among the most powerful cues that drive these …

[HTML][HTML] Driving Hebbian plasticity over ventral premotor-motor projections transiently enhances motor resonance
Background Making sense of others' actions relies on the activation of an action observation
network (AON), which maps visual information about observed actions onto the observer's …
