Action induction through action observation
Psychological Research, 2004Ideomotor movements may arise in individuals while they watch goal-directed actions or events. In a previous study we developed a paradigm for investigating ideomotor movements induced through watching the outcome of one's own action. In the present study we extended the paradigm to investigate both movements induced through watching the outcome of one'

Action plans used in action observation
Nature, 2003How do we understand the actions of others? According to the direct matching hypothesis, action understanding results from a mechanism that maps an observed action onto motor representations of that action. Although supported by neurophysiological and brain-imaging studies, direct evidence for this hypothesis is sparse. In visually guided actions, task-

Activation of action rules in action observation.
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2007Visually perceiving an action may activate corresponding motor programs. This automatic motor activation can occur both for higher level (i.e., the goal of an action) and for lower level (i.e., the specific effector with which it is executed) aspects of an action.

Journal of Neurologic Physical Therapy, 2012
Both action observation (AO) and action imagery have been proposed as therapeutic options for stroke rehabilitation. Currently, it is not clear to what extent their underlying neuronal mechanisms differ from each other and whether one of these therapeutic options might be preferable for this purpose.Twenty-six neurologically healthy subjects were ...

Sensory attenuation from action observation
Experimental Brain Research, 2022A central claim of many embodied approaches to cognition is that understanding others' actions is achieved by covertly simulating the observed actions and their consequences in one's own motor system. If such a simulation occurs, it may be accomplished through forward models, a component of the motor system already known to perform simulations of ...

Observation, reflection, action
Landscape and Urban Planning, 2017Abstract The hill and valley landscapes of Scotland influenced how Patrick Geddes viewed cities and regions. His theories were grounded in interdisciplinarity and visual thinking and produced enduring tools still used by planners and designers, such as transects, diagnostic surveys, and conservative surgery. Geddes’ holistic approach can be viewed in

Going Beyond Observable Actions
European Journal of Psychological Assessment, 2023Abstract: Pauses represented in process data captured from digital learning and assessment tasks are defined as the time elapsed between two subsequent events. Pauses are used as a marker of unobservable cognitive processes, such as encoding, problem-solving, and planning, that underlie test takers’ subsequent observable actions in educational ...

Tactile perception during action observation
Experimental Brain Research, 2016It has been suggested that tactile perception becomes less acute during movement to optimize motor control and to prevent an overload of afferent information generated during action. This empirical phenomenon, known as "tactile gating effect," has been associated with mechanisms of sensory feedback prediction.

Simultaneous action execution and observation optimise grasping actions
Experimental Brain Research, 2013Action observation and execution share overlapping neural resonating mechanisms. In the present study, we sought to examine the effect of the activation of this system during concurrent movement observation and execution in a prehension task, when no a priori information about the requirements of grasping action was available. Although it is known that
