Automatic imitation in rhythmical actions: kinematic fidelity and the effects of compatibility, delay, and visual monitoring. [PDF]
We demonstrate that observation of everyday rhythmical actions biases subsequent motor execution of the same and of different actions, using a paradigm where the observed actions were irrelevant for action execution.

Automatic imitation is reduced in narcissists but only in egocentric perspective-takers
Narcissism is a prevalent personality trait associated with low concern for others and high self-focus. Congruently, reduced automatic imitation in narcissists was reported in one study (23 participants), but it was not replicated in another (57 ...

Imitation and interindividual differences: Belief in free will is not related to automatic imitation
It is well known that individuals have the tendency to automatically imitate each other and that such imitative behavior is fostered by perceiving intentions in others' actions.

Automatic Imitation in School-Aged Children
Children imitate others for different reasons: To learn from others and to reach social goals such as affiliation or prosociality. So far, imitative acts have been measured using diverging methods in children and adults. Here, we investigated whether school-aged children’s imitation can be measured via their automatic imitation with a classical ...

The controlled imitation task: a new paradigm for studying self-other control [PDF]
In the automatic imitation task (AIT) participants make a cued response during simultaneous exposure to a congruent or incongruent action made by another agent.

Automatic imitation of intransitive actions [PDF]
Previous research has indicated a potential discontinuity between monkey and human ventral premotor-parietal mirror systems, namely that monkey mirror systems process only transitive (object-directed) actions, whereas human mirror systems may also process intransitive (non-object-directed) actions.

Assessing the automaticity of “automatic imitation”: Are imitative behaviours efficient?
Converging evidence from behavioural, neuroimaging and neurostimulation studies demonstrate that observing an action activates the neural mechanisms necessary to produce it, a phenomenon commonly termed automatic imitation. This is typically assessed behaviourally using the Stimulus Response Compatibility (SRC) task, where participants are presented ...

Similarity and automatic imitation
Individuals automatically imitate a wide range of different behaviors. Previous research suggests that imitation as a social process depends on the similarity between interaction partners. However, some of the experiments supporting this notion could not be replicated and all of the supporting experiments manipulated not only similarity between actor ...

Automatic versus voluntary motor imitation: effect of visual context and stimulus velocity. [PDF]
Automatic imitation is the tendency to reproduce observed actions involuntarily. Though this topic has been widely treated, at present little is known about the automatic imitation of the kinematic features of an observed movement.
