• Theory of Mind: A Neural Prediction Problem (2013, positive): “Across differences in barrier height and arm trajectory, activity in a region of the MTG/STS is correlated with the perceived inefficiency of the action (Jastorff et al., 2011).”
• The Representation of Agents in Auditory Verbal Hallucinations (2016, background): “At the short timescale of goal-directed actions, the expectation is that action will, first, have a purpose, and, second, be performed as efficiently as possible (Gergely and Csibra, 2003; Jastorff et al., 2011).”
