Cross-modal repetition effects in the mu rhythm indicate tactile mirroring during action observation.
Similar cortical activations during the experience and observation of touch suggest the presence of a tactile mirroring system. However, the specificity of observation-related activity - i.e., whether observation excites the same representations as experience of that specific tactile stimulation - is still to be established. Furthermore, central mu rhythms are attenuated during the experience a...
متن کاملAction Experience, More than Observation, Influences Mu Rhythm Desynchronization
Since the discovery of mirror neurons in premotor and parietal areas of the macaque monkey, the idea that action and perception may share the same neural code has been of central interest in social, developmental, and cognitive neurosciences. A fundamental question concerns how a putative human mirror neuron system may be tuned to the motor experiences of the individual. The current study teste...
متن کاملCross-modal Repetition Priming
Multimodal speech perception has become a topic of considerable interest to speech researchers. Previous research has demonstrated that perceivers use information from the visual modality to inform the process of spoken word recognition. In this paper, we used a cross-modal repetition priming paradigm to explore questions about multimodal speech perception. First, we report that participants id...
متن کاملAction mirroring and action understanding in children
The past decade has experienced an increasing interest in action underestanding and children’s mirroring of others’ behavior. Behavioral investigations have focused on the development and significance of mimicry, goal prediction and imitation. Others have focused on the neural basis of action mirroring, identifying particular electrophysiological markers or related brain regions. A vivid debate...
متن کاملMu rhythm desynchronization by tongue thrust observation
We aimed to investigate the mu rhythm in the sensorimotor area during tongue thrust observation and to obtain an answer to the question as to how subtle non-verbal orofacial movement observation activates the sensorimotor area. Ten healthy volunteers performed finger tap execution, tongue thrust execution, and tongue thrust observation. The electroencephalogram (EEG) was recorded from 128 elect...
