Neural Correlates of Intentional Communication
We know a great deal about the neurophysiological mechanisms supporting instrumental actions, i.e., actions designed to alter the physical state of the environment. In contrast, little is known about our ability to select communicative actions, i.e., actions directly designed to modify the mental state of another agent. We have recently provided novel empirical evidence for a mechanism in which...
متن کاملNeural and behavioral correlates of intentional actions.
An essential characteristic of human behavior is the ability to act out of intrinsic motivation to achieve desired goals. These kinds of actions have been classed as intentional or voluntary. They contrast with actions that are performed in response to external stimuli. Recent research has begun to explore the functional underpinnings of internally guided actions and how they differ from extern...
متن کاملNeural correlates of intentional and incidental recognition of famous faces.
Event-related potentials (ERPs) were used to study the relationship between intentional and incidental recognition of famous faces. Intentional and incidental recognition were operationally defined as repeated presentations of targets and nontargets within a modified Sternberg task. These repetitions elicited temporally and topographically distinct ERP modulations. A repetition effect around 30...
متن کاملNeural correlates of intentional and stimulus-driven inhibition: a comparison
People can inhibit an action because of an instruction by an external stimulus, or because of their own internal decision. The similarities and differences between these two forms of inhibition are not well understood. Therefore, in the present study the neural correlates of intentional and stimulus-driven inhibition were tested in the same subjects. Participants performed two inhibition tasks ...
متن کاملIntentional Communication
Intentional communication is perceptually based and about attentional objects. Three attention mechanisms are distinguished: scanning, attention attraction, and attention-focusing. Attention-focusing directs the subject towards attentional objects. It prepares for categorising input according to perceptual concepts. Attention-focusing is goal governed (controlled by stimulus) or goal intended (...
