A fundamental issue in cognitive neuroscience is how the brain encodes others' actions and
intentions. In recent years, a potential advance in our knowledge on this issue is the …

Studying human infants will increase our understanding of the nature, origins and function of
neural mirroring mechanisms. Human infants are prolific imitators. Infant imitation indicates …

Rhythmic neural activity within the alpha (8–12 Hz) and beta (15–25 Hz) frequency bands is
modulated during actual and imagined movements. Changes in these rhythms provide a …

The present study examined the neural processes related to different forms of prosocial
behavior in infancy by means of a longitudinal study. At 14months, infants' resting state brain …

The EEG mu rhythm, recorded from scalp regions overlying the sensorimotor cortex,
appears to exhibit mirroring properties: It is reactive when performing an action and when …

The use of electroencephalography (EEG) to study infant brain development is a growing
trend. In addition to classical longitudinal designs that study the development of neural …

Bidirectional action-effect associations play a fundamental role in intentional action control
and the development of the mirror neuron system. However, it has been questioned if infants …

A foundational aspect of early social–emotional development is the ability to detect and
respond to the actions of others who are coordinating their behavior with that of the self …

Human infants rapidly learn new skills and customs via imitation, but the neural linkages
between action perception and production are not well understood. Neuroscience studies in …

Typically develo** infants rapidly acquire a sophisticated array of social skills within the
first year of life. These social skills are largely learned within the context of day-to-day …
