Mirroring ‘meaningful’ actions: Sensorimotor learning modulates imitation of goal-directed actions
Imitation is important in the development of social and technological skills throughout the lifespan. Experiments investigating the acquisition and modulation of imitation (and of its proposed neural substrate, the mirror neuron system) have produced evidence that the capacity for imitation depends...
