TLDR
One theory relies upon the organism making an inductive (plausible but not necessary) inference utilizing mature kinesthetic-visual matching and understanding of mirror-correspondence, while the other relies upon an organism making a deductive inference, and this theory states that necessary and sufficient conditions for mirror-self-recognition are (1) fully understanding object permanence, (2) understanding mirror correspondence, and (3) objectifying body-parts as mentioned in this paper.About:

The representing brain: Neural correlates of motor intention and imagery
TL;DR: A mechanism is proposed that is able to encode the desired goal of the action and is applicable to different levels of representational organization, as well as investigating the role of posterior parietal and premotor cortical areas in schema instantiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
On a confusion about a function of consciousness.
TL;DR: This target article uses as an example a form of reasoning about a function of “consciousness” based on the phenomenon of blindsight, where an obvious function of the machinery of accessconsciousness is illicitly transferred to phenomenal consciousness.

TL;DR: In this article, a form of reasoning about a function of consciousness based on the phenomenon of blindsight is presented, where it is shown that some information about stimuli in the blind field is represented in the brains of blind sight patients, as shown by their correct guesses.

Learning by imitation: A hierarchical approach
Richard W. Byrne,Anne E. Russon +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that most of the alternatives for explaining social learning without invoking the cognitively complex concept of imitation can be subsumed under a single process, priming, in which input increases the activation of stored internal representations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theory of mind in nonhuman primates.
TL;DR: A procedure that uses conditional discrimination training and transfer tests to determine whether chimpanzees have the concept “see” is proposed and critics are invited to identify flaws in the procedure and to suggest alternatives.

Book
Nonparametric statistics for the behavioral sciences
TL;DR: This is the revision of the classic text in the field, adding two new chapters and thoroughly updating all others as discussed by the authors, and the original structure is retained, and the book continues to serve as a combined text/reference.
Book
The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life
TL;DR: For instance, in the case of an individual in the presence of others, it can be seen as a form of involuntary expressive behavior as discussed by the authors, where the individual will have to act so that he intentionally or unintentionally expresses himself, and the others will in turn have to be impressed in some way by him.
Book
The Concept of Mind
TL;DR: This epoch-making book cuts through confused thinking and forces us to re-examine many cherished ideas about knowledge, imagination, consciousness and the intellect as mentioned in this paper, and the result is a classic example of philosophy.
Book
The construction of reality in the child
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors make a distinction between simple temporal displacements in extension due to the repetition of primitive processes on the occasion of new problems analogous to old ones, and the temporal displacement in comprehension due to a transition from one plane of activity to another; that is, from the plane of action to that of representation.
