29 wrz 2020 · The “broken mirror neuron theory” for autism asserts that the frontal and parietal brain regions with mirror neurons were found to be abnormally activated in individuals with ASD and given the property of mirror neurons (i.e., discharges during both activation observation and execution) that appears to support imitation, impaired imitation ...
Individuals with autism have difficulties in social learning domains which typically involve mirror neuron system (MNS) activation. However, the precise role of the MNS in the development of autism and its relevance to treatment remain unclear.
Mirror neurons are motor neurons that discharge both when an individual performs a given motor act and when they observe another individual performing the same act.
15 lip 2020 · All models suggest some dysfunction regarding the mirror neuron system in autism spectrum condition, be that within the mirror neuron system itself or systems that regulate the mirror neuron system. This literature review compares these three models in regard to recent neuroscientific investigations.
9 lip 2021 · Ten years ago, Perspectives in Psychological Science published the Mirror Neuron Forum, in which authors debated the role of mirror neurons in action understanding, speech, imitation, and autism an...
1 sty 2013 · Overall, there is little evidence for a global dysfunction of the mirror system in autism. Current data can be better understood under an alternative model in which social top-down response modulation is abnormal in autism. The implications of this model and future research directions are discussed. Highlights.
18 wrz 2009 · According to this new mirror hypothesis on the neural basis of the autistic deficit in understanding others, there is a dissociation, in autism, between the capacity to understand the what of an action (carried out by the basic mirror neurons mechanism) and the why of it (depending on the integrity of the chained motor organization).
