Social cognition in humans. (2007, positive): “Activity in the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) and interparietal sulcus (IPS) occurs in response to action execution and action observation [35, 36 ].”
The Observation and Execution of Actions Share Motor and Somatosensory Voxels in all Tested Subjects: Single-Subject Analyses of Unsmoothed fMRI Data (2008, background): “Sensory brain areas, including the MTG and auditory areas however also project to the PPC which projects to PM along a direct cortico-cortical route and through the cerebellum, potentially implementing the inverse model (Seltzer and Pandya 1978, 1994; Matelli et al. 1986; Andersen et al. 1997; Luppi”
An Evolutionary Upgrade of Cognitive Load Theory: Using the Human Motor System and Collaboration to Support the Learning of Complex Cognitive Tasks (2012, background): “In terms of cognitive load theory, working in groups, as compared with working individually, has two contrary consequences.”
The anthropomorphic brain: The mirror neuron system responds to human and robotic actions (2007, background): “Mirror neurons in the premotor and parietal cortex of the monkey respond when the monkey executes a particular action, and when it sees or hears someone else perform similar actions (Fogassi et al., 2005; Gallese et al., 1996; Keysers et al., 2003; Kohler et al., 2002; Rizzolatti and Craighero, 200”
Neural mechanisms of understanding rational actions: middle temporal gyrus activation by contextual violation. (2011, background): “However, this does not preclude the involvement of the mirror neuron system in assessing the intentions of the actor (Cattaneo and Rizzolatti 2009).”
