Enactive intersubjectivity: Participatory sense-making and mutual incorporation (2009, methodology): “Thus, we model the beliefs and intentions of others whom we deal with as if we were in their situation, or as if we were them (Dokic and Proust 2002; Gordon 1996; Goldman 2006).”
What Do Mirror Neurons Contribute to Human Social Cognition (2008, background): “On this strategy, the relevant differences between pretence and mirroring can be accommodated by treating pretence as a so-called ‘ higher-level ’ mindreading 29 I shall not evaluate the relevance of this evidence for the claim that not all mirroring processes are motor processes here.”
EPISTEMIC ANXIETY AND ADAPTIVE INVARIANTISM (2010, background): “…simulation model, one imaginatively puts oneself in the position of another, pretending to have his beliefs and desires, then makes whatever judgment would be the natural outcome of those pretended initial states, and finally projects the resultant state back onto the third party (Goldman, 2006).”
Dreaming and Imagination (2009, background): “Neuroscientific evidence also confirms that similar processes are at work in vision and visual imagery (see Goldman 2006, pp. 154-55 ).”
How do forward models work? And why would you want them? (2013, unknown): “However, our notion of simulation is compatible with the simulation theory of mind-reading (Goldman, 2006; see Gordon, 1986), which is primarily used to explain “off-line” understanding of others.”
Grounding Procedural and Declarative Knowledge in Sensorimotor Anticipation (2011, background): “Recent empirical evidence indicates that the mechanism we have described of access via simulation is not limited to providing knowledge about the effects of possible actions (Davidson and Wolpert, 2005), but also informs one’s idiosyncratic performance (Knoblich and Flach, 2003) and one’s own mental”
Empathy, Embodiment and Interpersonal Understanding: From Lipps to Schutz (2010, unknown): “It is consequently no coincidence that Goldman considers a more apt name for the whole process to be simulation-plus-projection (Goldman 2006, 40).”
What Is It like to Feel Another’s Pain?* (2012, methodology): “The sharing-first option fits the simulation theory of mind reading (e.g., Goldman 2006b).”
