Hand Specific Representations in Language Comprehension
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 Theories of embodied cognition argue that language comprehension involves sensory-motor re-enactments of the actions described. However, the degree of specificity of these re-enactments as well as the relationship between action and language remains a ...

Motor execution affects action prediction [PDF]
Brain and Cognition, 2011 Previous studies provided evidence of the claim that the prediction of occluded action involves real-time simulation. We report two experiments that aimed to study how real-time simulation is affected by simultaneous action execution under conditions of full, partial or no overlap between observed and executed actions.

Transmission protocols for instruction streams [PDF]
, 2009 Threads as considered in thread algebra model behaviours to be controlled by some execution environment: upon each action performed by a thread, a reply from its execution environment -- which takes the action as an instruction to be processed ...

Active vision during action execution, observation and imagery: evidence for shared motor representations. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The concept of shared motor representations between action execution and various covert conditions has been demonstrated through a number of psychophysiological modalities over the past two decades.

Act on Numbers: Numerical Magnitude Influences Selection and Kinematics of Finger Movement
Frontiers in Psychology, 2017 In the past decade hand kinematics has been reliably adopted for investigating cognitive processes and disentangling debated topics. One of the most controversial issues in numerical cognition literature regards the origin – cultural vs.

Modulation of the Intracortical LFP during Action Execution and Observation. [PDF]
J Neurosci, 2015 The activity of mirror neurons in macaque ventral premotor cortex (PMv) and primary motor cortex (M1) is modulated by the observation of another's movements.

Decision heuristics in contexts integrating action selection and execution
Scientific Reports, 2023 Heuristics can inform human decision making in complex environments through a reduction of computational requirements (accuracy-resource trade-off) and a robustness to overparameterisation (less-is-more).

Prediction error induced motor contagions in human behaviors
eLife, 2018 Motor contagions refer to implicit effects on one's actions induced by observed actions. Motor contagions are believed to be induced simply by action observation and cause an observer's action to become similar to the action observed.

Action Observation for Neurorehabilitation in Apraxia
Frontiers in Neurology, 2019 Neurorehabilitation and brain stimulation studies of post-stroke patients suggest that action-observation effects can lead to rapid improvements in the recovery of motor functions and long-term motor cortical reorganization.
