TLDR
The present meta-analysis summarizes and amends previous descriptions of the human brain networks related to action observation and imitation, and identifies cortical areas consistently involved in action observed and imitation by combining activation likelihood estimation (ALE) meta- analysis with probabilistic cytoarchitectonic maps.

Meta-analytic evidence for a superordinate cognitive control network subserving diverse executive functions

TL;DR: In this article, a common pattern of activation was observed in the prefrontal, dorsal anterior cingulate, and parietal cortices across executive function domains, supporting the idea that executive functions are supported by a superordinate cognitive control network.

Minimizing Within-Experiment and Within-Group Effects in Activation Likelihood Estimation Meta-Analyses

TL;DR: It is suggested that the modified ALE algorithm is theoretically advantageous compared with the current algorithm, and that the alternate organization of datasets is the most conservative approach for typical ALE analyses and other CBMA methods.

Common and distinct networks underlying reward valence and processing stages: A meta-analysis of functional neuroimaging studies

TL;DR: To better understand the reward circuitry in human brain, activation likelihood estimation (ALE) and parametric voxel-based meta-analyses (PVM) on 142 neuroimaging studies that examined brain activation in reward-related tasks in healthy adults were conducted.

Modelling neural correlates of working memory: a coordinate-based meta-analysis.

TL;DR: Meta-analyses are a powerful tool to integrate the data of functional imaging studies on a (broader) psychological construct, probing the consistency across various paradigms as well as the differential effects of different experimental implementations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brain regions with mirror properties: a meta-analysis of 125 human fMRI studies.

TL;DR: A core network of human brain regions that possess mirror properties associated with action observation and execution are suggested, with additional areas recruited during tasks that engage non-motor functions, such as auditory, somatosensory and affective components.

The mirror-neuron system.

TL;DR: A neurophysiological mechanism appears to play a fundamental role in both action understanding and imitation, and those properties specific to the human mirror-neuron system that might explain the human capacity to learn by imitation are stressed.

Human Agency in Social Cognitive Theory

TL;DR: The nature and function of human agency is examined within the conceptual model of triadic reciprocal causation, which accords a central role to cognitive, vicarious, self-reflective, and self-regulatory processes.

Action recognition in the premotor cortex

TL;DR: It is proposed that mirror neurons form a system for matching observation and execution of motor actions, similar to that of mirror neurons exists in humans and could be involved in recognition of actions as well as phonetic gestures.

A new SPM toolbox for combining probabilistic cytoarchitectonic maps and functional imaging data

TL;DR: A new, MATLAB based toolbox for the SPM2 software package is introduced which enables the integration of probabilistic cytoarchitectonic maps and results of functional imaging studies and an easy-to-use tool for the integrated analysis of functional and anatomical data in a common reference space.

Automaticity of social behavior: Direct effects of trait construct and stereotype activation on action.

TL;DR: Experiment 1 showed that participants whose concept of rudeness was printed interrupted the experimenter more quickly and frequently than did participants primed with polite-related stimuli, consistent with the content of that stereotype.
