How social is error observation? The neural mechanisms underlying the observation of human and machine errors

C Desmet, E Deschrijver, M Brass - Social cognitive and …, 2014 - academic.oup.com
Recently, it has been shown that the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) is involved in error
execution as well as error observation. Based on this finding, it has been argued that …

Neural mechanisms supporting evaluation of others' errors in real-life like conditions

IP Jääskeläinen, HL Halme, Y Agam, E Glerean… - Scientific reports, 2016 - nature.com
The ability to evaluate others' errors makes it possible to learn from their mistakes without
the need for first-hand trial-and-error experiences. Here, we compared functional magnetic …

Neural correlates of the processing of another's mistakes: a possible underpinning for social and observational learning

MS Shane, M Stevens, CL Harenski, KA Kiehl - Neuroimage, 2008 - Elsevier
Recent work suggests that a generalized error monitoring circuit, which shows heightened
activation when one commits an error in goal-directed behavior, may exhibit synonymous …

Neural mechanisms involved in error processing: a comparison of errors made with and without awareness

R Hester, JJ Foxe, S Molholm, M Shpaner, H Garavan - Neuroimage, 2005 - Elsevier
The ability to detect an error in one's own performance and then to improve ongoing
performance based on this error processing is critical for effective behaviour. In our event …

Surprisingly correct: unexpectedness of observed actions activates the medial prefrontal cortex

AM Schiffer, KH Krause, RI Schubotz - Human brain mapping, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Not only committing errors, but also observing errors has been shown to activate the dorsal
medial prefrontal cortex, particularly BA 8 and adjacent rostral cingulate zone (RCZ) …

Mistakes that affect others: an fMRI study on processing of own errors in a social context

S Radke, FP De Lange, M Ullsperger… - Experimental brain …, 2011 - Springer
In social contexts, errors have a special significance and often bear consequences for
others. Thinking about others and drawing social inferences in interpersonal games …

Motor and non-motor error and the influence of error magnitude on brain activity

KG Nadig, L Jäncke, R Lüchinger, K Lutz - Experimental brain research, 2010 - Springer
It has been shown that frontal cortical areas increase their activity during error perception
and error processing. However, it is not yet clear whether perception of motor errors is …

Neural correlates of error detection and error correction: is there a common neuroanatomical substrate?

K Fiehler, M Ullsperger… - European Journal of …, 2004 - Wiley Online Library
Successful behaviour requires error detection resulting in remedial actions, such as
immediate error correction. The present event‐related functional magnetic resonance …

Human medial frontal cortex activity predicts learning from errors

R Hester, N Barre, K Murphy, TJ Silk… - Cerebral …, 2008 - academic.oup.com
Learning from errors is a critical feature of human cognition. It underlies our ability to adapt
to changing environmental demands and to tune behavior for optimal performance. The …

Predictive information and error processing: The role of medial‐frontal cortex during motor control

OE Krigolson, CB Holroyd - Psychophysiology, 2007 - Wiley Online Library
We have recently provided evidence that an error‐related negativity (ERN), an ERP
component generated within medial‐frontal cortex, is elicited by errors made during the …
