Using Functional Connectivity to Examine the Correlation between Mirror Neuron Network and Autistic Traits in a Typically Developing Sample: A fNIRS Study

Brain Sciences, 2021
Mirror neuron network (MNN) is associated with one’s ability to recognize and interpret others’ actions and emotions and has a crucial role in cognition, perception, and social interaction.

Cortical and subcortical functional specificity associated with response inhibition

NeuroImage, 2020
Is motor response inhibition supported by a specialised neuronal inhibitory control mechanism, or by a more general system of action updating? This pre-registered study employed a context-cueing paradigm requiring both inhibitory and non-inhibitory ...

Kicking the mental number line: a kinematic investigation of numerical processing in childhood

Frontiers in Psychology
A growing body of evidence in adults indicates bidirectional interactions between numerical processing and motor execution, often interpreted as the result of sensorimotor experiences linking numerical magnitude to physical size and action parameters ...

Are you approaching me? Motor execution influences perceived action orientation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Human observers are especially sensitive to the actions of conspecifics that match their own actions. This has been proposed to be critical for social interaction, providing the basis for empathy and joint action.

The topographical organization of motor processing: An ALE meta-analysis on six action domains and the relevance of Broca’s region

NeuroImage, 2020
Action is a cover term used to refer to a large set of motor processes differing in domain specificities (e.g. execution or observation). Here we review neuroimaging evidence on action processing (N = 416; Subjects = 5912) using quantitative Activation ...

Impact of Radiation Therapy on Physical and Psychosocial Health of Adolescents and Young Adults: A Joint Report From the Children's Oncology Group AYA and Radiation Oncology Committees

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.
