• Activations related to "mirror" and "canonical" neurones in the human brain: an fMRI study (2003, background): “Within the ventral premotor area F5, there are neurones that discharge during goal-directed actions (Rizzolatti et al., 1988).”
• Brain regions with mirror properties: a meta-analysis of 125 human fMRI studies. (2012, background): “…hand, the mere observation of a graspable object can activate cells in motor areas in the absence of any self-generated action, but these neurons have been labeled “canonical neurons” rather than mirror neurons (Rizzolatti et al., 1988; Murata et al., 1997), and might subserve distinct functions.”
• Intention and motor representation in purposive action (2014, background): “In order to vary kinematic and dynamic features while holding action outcomes constant, in some studies a single action outcome is achieved using different effectors, hand, mouth or foot, say (Rizzolatti et al. 1988, 2001; Cattaneo et al. 2010).”
• The Roots of Empathy: The Shared Manifold Hypothesis and the Neural Basis of Intersubjectivity (2003, neutral): “The rostralmost sector of the ventral premotor cortex of the macaque monkey controls hand and mouth movements [Rizzolatti et al., 1981, 1988; Kurata and Tanji, 1986; Hepp-Reymond et al., 1994].”
• Intention, action planning, and decision making in parietal-frontal circuits. (2009, background): “The anterior intraparietal area (AIP) appears selective for grasps (Sakata et al., 1997; Baumann et al., 2009) and is interconnected with the ventral premotor cortex (PMv) (Tanne-Gariepy et al., 2002), which also has activity related to grasp movements (Rizzolatti et al., 1988).”
• Monkey to human comparative anatomy of the frontal lobe association tracts. (2012, background): “Cortical recording in the SMA shows different classes of neurons associated with batches of sequential movement (Donchin et al., 1971; Rizzolatti et al., 1988; Tanji and Shima, 1994).”
• The functional neuroanatomy of the human orbitofrontal cortex: evidence from neuroimaging and neuropsychology. (2004, background): “…area F5 contains the representation of distal arm movement with neurons responding to goal-related motor acts and motivational visual stimuli (Rizzolatti et al., 1988), and has reciprocal connections with the lateral and caudal orbitofrontal cortex (Barbas and Pandya, 1989; Morecraft et al.,…”
• Grounding Procedural and Declarative Knowledge in Sensorimotor Anticipation (2011, background): “It has been proposed that the brain maintains a vocabulary of actions that provide basic functionalities such as finding, reaching, grasping and lifting a cup, and that such actions can be recombined flexibly (Fadiga and Craighero, 2004; Rizzolatti et al., 1988).”
• Human cortical representations for reaching: Mirror neurons for execution, observation, and imagery (2007, background): “Electrophysiological studies in macaques have identified several frontal areas involved in hand action representations (Preuss et al., 1996; Muakkassa and Strick, 1979; Matelli and Luppino, 2001; Rizzolatti et al., 1988).”
