Covert and overt automatic imitation are correlated
Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2023 Most theoretical accounts of imitation assume that covert and overt measures of automatic imitation tap into the same underlying construct. Despite this widespread assumption, it is not well-supported by empirical evidence. In fact, the only study investigating the relation between covert and overt automatic imitation failed to find a correlation ...

Social attitudes modulate automatic imitation [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, 2010 In naturalistic interpersonal settings, mimicry or 'automatic imitation' generates liking, affiliation, cooperation and other positive social attitudes. The purpose of this study was to find out whether the relationship between social attitudes and mimicry is bidirectional: Do social attitudes have a direct and specific effect on mimicry?

In the eye of the beholder: reduced threat-bias and increased gaze-imitation towards reward in relation to trait anger. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The gaze of a fearful face silently signals a potential threat's location, while the happy-gaze communicates the location of impending reward. Imitating such gaze-shifts is an automatic form of social interaction that promotes survival of individual and ...

Automatic imitation of biomechanically possible and impossible actions: effects of priming movements versus goals [PDF]
, 2008 Recent behavioral, neuroimaging, and neurophysiological research suggests a common representational code mediating the observation and execution of actions; yet, the nature of this representational code is not well understood.

Dynamic emotional expressions do not modulate responses to gestures
Acta Psychologica, 2021 The tendency to imitate the actions of others appears to be a fundamental aspect of human social interaction. Emotional expressions are a particularly salient form of social stimuli (Vuilleumier & Schwartz, 2001) but their relationship to imitative ...

Experience modulates automatic imitation
Cognitive Brain Research, 2005 Action observation gives rise to activation in corresponding areas of the premotor and primary motor cortices. We tested the hypothesis that this activation depends on visual-motor connections established through correlated experience of observing and executing the same action.

Laboratory Phonology, 2023 The present study examined how native phonological and phonetic factors in non-native speech perception (Perceptual Assimilation Model [PAM]: Best, 1995) affect non-native imitation of Thai tones by Thai-naïve Mandarin and Vietnamese participants, and ...

Attention modulates the specificity of automatic imitation to human actors [PDF]
, 2009 The perception of actions performed by others activates one’s own motor system. Recent studies disagree as to whether this effect is specific to actions performed by other humans, an issue complicated by differences in perceptual salience between human ...

TextGAIL: Generative Adversarial Imitation Learning for Text Generation
, 2021 Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) for text generation have recently received many criticisms, as they perform worse than their MLE counterparts. We suspect previous text GANs' inferior performance is due to the lack of a reliable guiding signal in ...

Heartfelt imitation: High interoceptive awareness is linked to greater automatic imitation [PDF]
Neuropsychologia, 2014 'Interoceptive awareness', defined as the individual's awareness of internal body signals, modulates self/other distinction under conditions of multisensory integration. We examined here, for the first time, the potential impact of interoceptive awareness on self/other distinction in the motor domain.
