Understanding Others’ Intentions
When we act, we intend to reach a goal. Conversely, when we observe someone else act, we can often infer their intentions. Fogassi et al. (p. 662; see the Perspective by Nakahara and Miyashita) found that in the inferior parietal lobule of an individual about to begin an action, the goal of their action (e.g., grasping for food versus grasping a branch) is reflected in the discharge of the neur...
