A preliminary attempt to investigate mirror self-recognition in Octopus vulgaris [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Mirror self-recognition (MSR) is a potential indicator of self-awareness. This capability has been widely investigated among vertebrates, yet it remains largely unstudied in invertebrates.

Brain mechanisms underlying self-other distinction for bodily self-recognition [PDF]
Frontiers in Neural CircuitsAccumulating evidence indicates that single neurons in the primate brain specifically encode sensorimotor experience about the self or others. Although the self-other distinction has been a major focus of social neuroscience research, little is known ...

Self-Recognition and Emotional Knowledge. [PDF]
Eur J Dev Psychol, 2022 Self-recognition emerges during the second year of life and represents the emergence of a reflective self, a metacognition which underlies self-conscious emotions such as embarrassment and shame, perspective taking, and emotional knowledge of others. In a longitudinal study of 171 children, two major questions were explored from an extant database: 1 ...

Mirror Self-Recognition in Pigeons: Beyond the Pass-or-Fail Criterion [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 Spontaneous mirror self-recognition is achieved by only a limited number of species, suggesting a sharp “cognitive Rubicon” that only few can pass. But is the demarcation line that sharp? In studies on monkeys, who do not recognize themselves in a mirror,

The Impact of Autistic Traits on Self-Recognition of Body Movements [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2019 Despite the sparse visual information and paucity of self-identifying cues provided by point-light stimuli, as well as a dearth of experience in seeing our own-body movements, people can identify themselves solely based on the kinematics of body ...

Individual differences and motor planning influence self-recognition of actions. [PDF]
PLoS ONEAlthough humans can recognize their body movements in point-light displays, self-recognition ability varies substantially across action types and participants.

Phages Mediate Bacterial Self-Recognition [PDF]
Cell Reports, 2019 Summary: Cells are social, and self-recognition is a conserved aspect of group behavior where cells assist kin and antagonize non-kin. However, the role of phage in self-recognition is unexplored.

Partial Prion Cross-Seeding between Fungal and Mammalian Amyloid Signaling Motifs
mBio, 2021 Amyloids are β-sheet-rich protein polymers that can be pathological or display a variety of biological roles. In filamentous fungi, specific immune receptors activate programmed cell death execution proteins through a process of amyloid templating akin ...

How clustered protocadherin binding specificity is tuned for neuronal self-/nonself-recognition
eLife, 2022 The stochastic expression of fewer than 60 clustered protocadherin (cPcdh) isoforms provides diverse identities to individual vertebrate neurons and a molecular basis for self-/nonself-discrimination.
