Journal ArticleDOI
The neural bases of cooperation and competition: an fMRI investigation
TL;DR: It is argued that cooperation is a socially rewarding process and is associated with specific left medial orbitofrontal cortex involvement, in accordance with evidence from evolutionary psychology as well as from developmental psychology.
Journal ArticleDOI
A PET Exploration of the Neural Mechanisms Involved in Reciprocal Imitation
TL;DR: This paper found that the left inferior parietal is specifically involved in producing imitation, whereas the right homologous region is more activated when one's own actions are imitated by another person.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural correlates of Early Stone Age toolmaking: technology, language and cognition in human evolution
TL;DR: Results from a positron emission tomography study of functional brain activation during experimental ESA (Oldowan and Acheulean) toolmaking by expert subjects suggest that toolmaking and language share a basis in more general human capacities for complex, goal-directed action.
Journal ArticleDOI
The thing that should not be: predictive coding and the uncanny valley in perceiving human and humanoid robot actions
TL;DR: The authors explored the selectivity of the human action perception system (APS), which consists of temporal, parietal and frontal areas, for the appearance and/or motion of the perceived agent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural correlates of feeling sympathy.
TL;DR: Results are consistent with a model of feeling sympathy that relies on both the shared representation and the affective networks, and Interestingly, this network was not activated when subjects watched inappropriate social behavior.
