| Mirror Neurons | Psychological Theories | Slater I 78 Mirror neurons/MN/psychological theories/Slater: The first reports on what are called “mirror neurons” (MN) (Dipellegrino et al. 1992(1); Rizolatti et al. 1996(2)). MNs are neurons in the primate brain that Slater I 79 are activated, or fire, when they carry out an action, but the same set of neurons also fire when they see someone else carry out an action, even though they do not carry out the action themselves. It has been suggested that MNs are the key to being human, and that the absence of the MN system may be part of the reason for highly autistic individuals’ inability to carry out appropriate social interactions with others. See Mukamel et al. (2010)(3). >Autism, >Behavior, >Observation, >Theory of Mind, >Other minds, >Intersubjectivity, >Social Behavior, >Understanding, >Interaction. Slater I 80 Imitation/explanation/mirror neurons/Slater: MNs can only be part of the explanation [of imitation].
