Empathy and the somatotopic auditory mirror system in humans. (2006, background): “Although some studies find MTG activation during motor execution [23, 24], others do not [25, 26].”
Where do mirror neurons come from? (2010, background): “regions broadly homologous with those where mirror neurons have been found in monkeys (Aziz-Zadeh et al., 2006; Buccino et al., 2004a; Jonas et al., 2007; Gazzola et al., 2006, 2007a,b; Grèzes et al., 2003; Iacoboni et al., 1999; Molnar-Szakacs et al., 2005; Shmuelof and Zohary, 2006; Vogt et al., 2”
Transmodal Sensorimotor Networks during Action Observation in Professional Pianists (2005, result): “In line with our results, inferior frontal opercular activation differences at the ventral border to the precentral cortex in the context of motor observation are confirmed by recent fMRI data ( Grezes, Armony, Rowe, & Passingham, 2003; Hamzei et al., 2003).”
The Observation and Execution of Actions Share Motor and Somatosensory Voxels in all Tested Subjects: Single-Subject Analyses of Unsmoothed fMRI Data (2008, background): “…actions (Avikainen et al. 2002; Rossi et al. 2002; Raos et al. 2004, 2007; Cross et al. 2006; Gazzola et al. 2006; Gazzola, Rizzolatti, et al. 2007; Grezes et al. 2003; Hasson et al. 2004; Oouchida et al. 2004; Mottonen et al. 2005; Molnar-Szakacs et al. 2006) and these regions are also activated…”
Exploring the neural correlates of goal-directed action and intention understanding (2011, positive): “…been identified as human mirror neuron regions that respond to both performed and observed actions (e.g., Buccino et al., 2001; Chaminade and Decety, 2002; Decety et al., 2002; Fadiga et al., 1995; Grezes et al., 2003; Iacoboni et al., 1999, 2005; Montgomery et al., 2007; Pierno et al., 2006 ).”
Too real for comfort? Uncanny responses to computer generated faces (2009, background): “In a follow-up experiment, Hanson (2006) showed the valley could be bridged by carefully designing the steps between robot and android.”
The mirror-neuron system. (2004, neutral): “…the evolution of imitation (see Arbib 2002) and the related changes of the human mirror-neuron system: the capacity of mirror neurons to respond to pantomimes (Buccino et al. 2001, Grèzes et al. 2003) and to intransitive actions (Fadiga et al. 1995, Maeda et al. 2002) that was absent in monkeys.”
Two systems for empathy: a double dissociation between emotional and cognitive empathy in inferior frontal gyrus versus ventromedial prefrontal lesions. (2009, background): “How can one explain the essential role of BA 44 in emotional empathy observed in the present study? First, beyond language related functions, neuroimaging studies have suggested a central role of BA 44, as a neural substrate for imitation (Iacoboni et al., 1999, 2001; Nishitani and Hari, 2000, 2002;”
The anthropomorphic brain: The mirror neuron system responds to human and robotic actions (2007, background): “To check if the small differences between simple and complex actions in the MNS could be due to differences in the objects themselves, possibly through the activity of canonical neurons ( Grezes et al., 2003; Murata et al., 1997; Rizzolatti and Fadiga, 1998), we compared the sight of our simple and”
The functional role of the parieto-frontal mirror circuit: interpretations and misinterpretations (2010, background): “Additional cortical areas (such as the dorsal premotor cortex and the superior parietal lobule) have also been occasionally found to be active during action observation and executio”
Grasping the Intentions of Others with One's Own Mirror Neuron System (2005, background): “execution of finger movements (‘‘mirror neuron system’’) [10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,25,26,27].”
