Seeing an agent perform an action typically triggers a motor simulation of that action in the
observer's Mirror Neuron System (MNS). Over the past few years, it has become increasingly …

As a frontal node in the primate social brain, the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) plays a
critical role in coordinating one's own behavior with respect to that of others. Current …

Objective In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that both movement execution and
observation induce parallel modulations of alpha, beta, and gamma electrocorticographic …

During action observation, several visual features of observed actions can modulate the
level of sensorimotor reactivity in the onlooker. Among possibly relevant parameters, one of …

Decision-making via monitoring others' actions is a cornerstone of interpersonal exchanges.
Although the ventral premotor cortex (PMv) and the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) are …

We designed and implemented an immersive virtual reality (VR) environment for upper limb
rehabilitation, which possesses several notable features. First, by exploiting modern …

The desynchronization of alpha and beta oscillations (mu rhythm) in the central scalp EEG
during action observation and action execution is thought to reflect neural mirroring …

Understanding other people's actions is a fundamental prerequisite for social interactions.
Whether action understanding relies on simulating the actions of others in the observers' …

The spatial location and viewpoint of observed actions are closely linked in natural social
settings. For example, actions observed from a subjective viewpoint necessarily occur within …

Introduction Recent studies showed that VR is a valid tool to change implicit attitudes toward
outgroup members. Here, we extended this work by investigating conditions under which …
