Mirroring others' emotions relates to empathy and interpersonal competence in children (2008, background): “Together with growing evidence of MNS abnormalities in autism (Bernier et al., 2007; Dapretto et al., 2006; Hadjikhani et al., 2006; Nishitani et al., 2004; Oberman et al., 2005; Theoret et al., 2005; Williams et al., 2006), a disorder characterized by marked impairments in social interaction and th”

(2010, methodology): “Mu suppression is a commonly used measure of motor cortex activity (Kuhlman, 1978; Pfurtscheller & Aranibar, 1979) and has recently been used to index activity in the mirror-neuron-system by looking at motor cortex activity during observation of action (Marshall, Bouquet, Shipley, & Young, 2009; Obe”
Eight Problems for the Mirror Neuron Theory of Action Understanding in Monkeys and Humans (2009, background): “…without involvement of the motor system, provides a description of the visible aspects of the movement of the agent, but does not give information critical for understanding action semantics, i.e., what the action is about, what its goal is, and how it is related to other actions’’ (p. 332).”
Mapping early brain development in autism. (2007, neutral): “Interestingly, these regions include the mirror neuron system, which has been hypothesized by some to be critical in autism (Dapretto et al., 2006; Hadjikhani et al., 2006; Oberman et al., 2005; Oberman and Ramachandran, 2007; Williams et al., 2001, 2006).”
The role of prediction in social neuroscience (2012, result): “This is also suggested by studies that have found abnormalities in mirrorneuron related activity in people with autism (Oberman et al., 2005) and schizophrenia (Singh et al., 2011) as indexed by EEG and the mu rhythm suppression, although conflicting results make this still unclear (Raymaekers et…”
