Apraxia, metaphor and mirror neurons

Medical Hypotheses, 2007
Ideomotor apraxia is a cognitive disorder in which the patient loses the ability to accurately perform learned, skilled actions. This is despite normal limb power and coordination. It has long been known that left supramarginal gyrus lesions cause bilateral upper limb apraxia and it was proposed that this area stored a visual-kinaesthetic image of the ...

More questions for mirror neurons

Consciousness and Cognition, 2013
The mirror neuron system is widely held to provide direct access to the motor goals of others. This paper critically investigates this idea, focusing on the so-called 'intentional worry'. I explore two answers to the intentional worry: first that the worry is premised on too limited an understanding of mirror neuron behaviour (Sections 2 and 3), second

Theory of mind and mirroring neurons

Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 2000
In all this, the exciting finding is that an emerging cognitive neuroscience has implicated a number of key brain areas that are fundamental in social cognition, as was elegantly described by Adolphs in his paper. Interestingly, common regions of my brain are active whether I reach for an object or I observe you doing so.

Imitation, Empathy, and Mirror Neurons

Annual Review of Psychology, 2009
There is a convergence between cognitive models of imitation, constructs derived from social psychology studies on mimicry and empathy, and recent empirical findings from the neurosciences. The ideomotor framework of human actions assumes a common representational format for action and perception that facilitates imitation. Furthermore, the associative

Making sense of mirror neurons

Synthese, 2008
The discovery of mirror neurons has been hailed as one of the most exciting developments in neuroscience in the past few decades. These neurons discharge in response to the observation of others’ actions. But how are we to understand the function of these neurons? In this paper I defend the idea that mirror neurons are best conceived as components of a
