Testing key predictions of the associative account of mirror neurons in humans using multivariate pattern analysis
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 April 2014
Abstract
Cook et al. overstate the evidence supporting their associative account of mirror neurons in humans: most studies do not address a key property, action-specificity that generalizes across the visual and motor domains. Multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA) of neuroimaging data can address this concern, and we illustrate how MVPA can be used to test key predictions of their account.
