Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2023 When we interact with the environment around us, we are sometimes active participants, making directed physical motor movements and other times only mentally engaging with our environment, taking in sensory information and internally planning our next ...

Vacuum Solutions of Classical Gravity on Cyclic Groups from Noncommutative Geometry [PDF]
, 2001 Based on the observation that the moduli of a link variable on a cyclic group modify Connes' distance on this group, we construct several action functionals for this link variable within the framework of noncommutative geometry.

Mental Action Simulation Synchronizes Action–Observation Circuits across Individuals [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2014 A frontoparietal action–observation network (AON) has been proposed to support understanding others' actions and goals. We show that the AON “ticks together” in human subjects who are sharing a third person's feelings. During functional magnetic resonance imaging, 20 volunteers watched movies depicting boxing matches passively or while simulating a ...

Effects of Movement Representation Strategies on Cardiovascular Disease: A Literature Review
Journal of Vascular Diseases, 2023 Motor imagery (MI) and action observation (AO) techniques are two movement representation strategies that are widely used in multiple fields of study. MI is defined as the cognitive skill that involves the representation of an action, internally, without

Multiple roles of motor imagery during action observation [PDF]
, 2013 Over the last 20 years, the topics of action observation (AO) and motor imagery (MI) have been largely studied in isolation from each other, despite the early integrative account by Jeannerod (1994, 2001). Recent neuroimaging studies demonstrate enhanced

“Etiquette-Observing” Emotional Actions
Beijing International Review of Education, 2022 Abstract The development of the Sociology of Emotions proves the potential correlation between emotion and reason. This study draws on the perspective of the Sociology of Emotions, follows the academic development of the symbolic interaction theory, and adopts the qualitative case study methodology to explore the elements and methods of emotional ...

How Task Interactivity Shapes Action Observation [PDF]
Cerebral Cortex, 2019 Abstract Action observation triggers imitation, a powerful mechanism permitting interpersonal coordination. Coordination, however, also occurs when the partners’ actions are nonimitative and physically incongruent. One influential theory postulates that this is achieved via top-down modulation of imitation exerted by prefrontal regions ...

An fMRI study of action observation and action execution in childhood
Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2019 Although many studies have examined the location and function of the mirror neuron system (MNS) in human adults, we know relatively little about its development. The current study fills this gap by using fMRI to examine for the first time the development

International Clinical Neuroscience Journal, 2022 The effectiveness of action observation (AO) and motor imagery (MI) in high-quality studies with less risk of bias is rarely reported together. This systematic review evaluates the effectiveness of AO and MI on improving upper extremity function among ...

The Action Observation System when Observing Hand Actions in Autism and Typical Development [PDF]
Autism Research, 2015 Social impairments in individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) may be in part due to difficulty perceiving and recognizing the actions of others. Evidence from imitation studies, which involves both observation and execution of an action, suggests differences, in individuals with ASD, between the ability to imitate goal‐directed actions ...
