Robots are increasingly envisaged as our future cohabitants. However, while considerable
progress has been made in recent years in terms of their technological realization, the ability …

Successful goal-directed behavior requires not only correct action selection, planning, and
execution but also the ability to flexibly adapt behavior when performance problems occur or …

Reinforcement learning (RL) enables robots to learn its optimal behavioral strategy in
dynamic environments based on feedback. Explicit human feedback during robot RL is …

An essential guide to designing, conducting, and analyzing event-related potential (ERP)
experiments, completely updated for this edition. The event-related potential (ERP) …

Social interaction is a cornerstone of human life, yet the neural mechanisms underlying
social cognition are poorly understood. Recently, research that integrates approaches from …

Metacognition concerns the processes by which we monitor and control our own cognitive
processes. It can also be applied to others, in which case it is known as mentalizing. Both …

The ability to coordinate our actions with those of others is crucial for our success as
individuals and as a species. Progress in understanding the cognitive and neural processes …

When two or more people coordinate their actions in space and time to produce a joint
outcome, they perform a joint action. The perceptual, cognitive, and motor processes that …

When performing tasks, humans are thought to adopt task sets that configure moment-to-
moment data processing. Recently developed mixed blocked/event-related designs allow …

We combined psychophysical and transcranial magnetic stimulation studies to investigate
the dynamics of action anticipation and its underlying neural correlates in professional …
