(2011, background): “…and retrieving memories (Cavanna and Trimble, 2006; Gusnard and Raichle, 2001; Wagner et al., 2005) and the TPJ and the temporal pole in mind reading and social cognition (Decety and Lamm, 2007; Frith and Frith, 2006; Moriguchi et al., 2006; Van Overwalle, 2009; Van Overwalle and Baetens, 2009).”
- Brain basis of human social interaction: from concepts to brain imaging. (2009, background): “The medial prefrontal cortex and midline cortical structures are related to perspective taking as well as self-related processing and awareness (71, 175), the temporal pole and amygdala to social scripts, emotions, and judgments (71, 73), and the temporoparietal junction, along with medial prefronta”
- Ventromedial prefrontal volume predicts understanding of others and social network size (2011, background): “Within Theory of Mind tasks, this region is believed to be involved in prediction of thoughts and feelings (Frith and Frith, 2006; Walter et al., 2004), and has been shown to activate during prospective intentionality calculations (den Ouden et al.”
- The development of emotion regulation: an fMRI study of cognitive reappraisal in children, adolescents and young adults. (2012, background): “…many complex social cognitive abilities, such as self-referential judgments, mentalizing, perspective taking and empathy (Amodio and Frith, 2006; Frith and Frith, 2006; Singer, 2006; Lieberman, 2007; Olson et al., 2007; Olsson and Ochsner, 2008; Adolphs, 2009; Carrington and Bailey, 2009;).”
- An fMRI investigation of empathy for 'social pain' and subsequent prosocial behavior (2011, background): “…and dorsomedial prefrontal cortices (VMPFC; MPFC; DMPFC), the posterior superior temporal sulcus (pSTS), the temporal poles, the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC), and the precuneus (Frith and Frith, 1999, 2003, 2006, Beer and Hughes, 2010; Mitchell et al., 2005; Singer, 2006; Hynes et al., 2006).”
- The proactive brain: memory for predictions (2009, background): “…Shannon 2005 ); decision-making (Fleck et al. 2006); emotional processing (Maddock 1999); self-referential processing (Kelley et al. 2002; Macrae & Moran 2004); social interactions (Iacoboni et al. 2004); and mental state attribution (i.e. theory of mind; Saxe & Kanwisher 2003; Frith & Frith 2006).”
- Meta-awareness, perceptual decoupling and the wandering mind. (2011, unknown): “Although disruptive of perception, this decoupling process could have important advantages because it allows the mind to focus in detail on an internal train of thought [67] and so allows the mental consideration of goals other than those in the Box 1.”
- Entrepreneurial Imaginativeness in New Venture Ideation (2018, background): “Because people cannot directly observe motives, they must use their imaginativeness to make social inferences about others’ beliefs, desires, or intent when they are ascribingmeaning to their behavior (Bagozzi, Verbeke, Dietvorst, Belschak, van den Berg, & Rietdijk, 2013; Frith & Frith, 2006, 2008).”
- Familiarity matters: A review on prioritized processing of personally familiar faces (2018, background): “…while the precuneus and the anterior temporal regions are involved in retrieval of episodic memory and biographical information (Damasio, Grabowski, Tranel, Hichwa, & Damasio, 1996; Frith & Frith, 2006; GornoTempini et al., 1998; Leveroni et al., 2000; Nakamura et al., 2000; Todorov et al., 2007).”
- Investigating action understanding: inferential processes versus action simulation. (2007, background): “based on the visual processing of the stimuli [1, 2, 16, 17].”
- Theory of Mind and conduct problems in children: Deficits in reading the “emotions of the eyes” (2008, methodology): “Theory of Mind (ToM, also referred to as mentalising; Fonagy, 1991; Frith & Frith, 2006) was coined by primatologists, Premack and Woodruff (1978) and adapted in developmental psychology to refer to the capacity to interpret the behaviour of others within a mentalistic framework*that is, the…”
- Mirroring others' emotions relates to empathy and interpersonal competence in children (2008, background): “Obviously, additional means of discerning others’ mental states, ranging from conscious simulation to reasoning based on naïve psychological theories (for discussion, see Adolphs, 2006; Frith and Frith, 2006; Mitchell, 2005) – and the neural systems supporting these functions (such as the superior t”
