Compatibility between Observed and Executed Finger Movements: Comparing Symbolic, Spatial, and Imitative Cues

In the citing paper

“As would be expected from the SRC literature using symbolic stimuli, reaction times are faster for imitative responses (which by definition share many properties with the action stimulus) than for non-imitative responses (Brass et al., 2000; Stürmer et al., 2000).”

“Indeed, it is well-established in the literature that automatic imitation comprises both a facilitation and an interference effect (Brass et al., 2000;Cracco et al., 2015;Genschow et al., 2017).”

In the citing paper

“Imitation—the copying of others actions—is a form of SRC involving human actions, where responses are stimulus-compatible with respect to spatial and kinetic features (Brass et al., 2000; Stürmer et al., 2000).”

In the citing paper

“An automatic (unintended or unconscious) tendency to imitate observed actions has been demonstrated in both laboratory and naturalistic settings (Chartrand and Bargh, 1999; Brass et al., 2000)”

In the citing paper

“In cognitive psychology, it is studied by means of automatic imitation -the finding that observing congruent actions facilitates, whereas observing incongruent actions impedes, unrelated task responses (Brass et al., 2000;Cracco, Bardi, et al., 2018;Heyes, 2011;Sturmer, Aschersleben, & Prinz, 2000).”

“Thus, in line with Simulation 2, these findings suggests that the model is robust under realistic circumstances (Brass et al., 2000;Cracco et al., 2015;Genschow et al., 2017).”

In the citing paper

“Given that such a balance is well-grounded in the literature (Brass et al., 2000;Cracco et al., 2015;Genschow et al., 2017), this indicates that the model is robust under realistic circumstances.”

In the citing paper

“An action-perception mismatch (between presented and target movement) constitutes incongruent trials, which result in slower reaction times for movement execution.This is due to a required inhibition of the automatic actionperception link for the sake of correct response execution (Brass et al., 2000).”

In the citing paper

“The simultaneous perception of a task-irrelevant action leads to interference (e.g., facilitation or inhibition) with a target movement (Brass et al., 2000).”

In the citing paper

“Matching motor perception and target action (e.g.presented and target movement are the same) constitutes congruent trials, which facilitate action execution and speed up response times.”

In the citing paper

“The RT measure of imitation involves making finger movements while simultaneously watching compatible or incompatible finger movements (Brass, Bekkering, Wohlschlager, & Prinz, 2000;Stürmer et al., 2000).”

In the citing paper

“Automatic imitation has been shown to be modulated by social context cues (see e.g.3–11)”
