Mirror illusion reduces motor cortical inhibition in the ipsilateral primary motor cortex during forceful unilateral muscle contractions [PDF]
, 2015 Forceful, unilateral contractions modulate corticomotor paths targeting the resting, contralateral hand. However, it is unknown if mirror-viewing of a slowly moving but forcefully contracting hand would additionally affect these paths.

The mirror mechanism in schizophrenia: A systematic review and qualitative meta-analysis
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2022 BackgroundMirror neuron system (MNS) consists of visuomotor neurons that are responsible for the mirror neuron activity (MNA), meaning that each time an individual observes another individual performing an action, these neurons encode that action, and ...

Mirror Neurons and Empathy - A Biomarker for the Complementary System [PDF]
, 2022 openThe discovery of the mirror neuron system gave rise to many new paths within neuroscience, psychology, kinematics and philosophy. This neurological system helped foster a broader understanding of social interaction, as these neurons fire in action ...

Prefrontal involvement in imitation learning of hand actions : effects of practice and expertise. [PDF]
, 2007 In this event-related fMRI study, we demonstrate the effects of a single session of practising configural hand actions (guitar chords) on cortical activations during observation, motor preparation, and imitative execution.
