Simulation and mirror neurons. Evidence in humans and monkeys

Parameters

More about the book

Focusing on the intriguing role of mirror neurons, this seminar paper explores their presence in the premotor cortex of monkeys and their activation during both action performance and observation. The author examines the hypothesis that these neurons serve as a neural basis for mind-reading, suggesting that understanding others' mental states may stem from simulating their processes through our own experiences. Additionally, the paper reviews evidence for mirror neurons in both monkeys and humans while providing an overview of simulation theory, linking these concepts to the broader philosophy of neuroscience.
