29 wrz 2020 · First, the MNS is impaired in ASD during action observation; second, MNS dysfunction in ASD individuals is modulated by social-emotional components of the visual stimuli during action observation. Third, age seems to be an important factor in MNS function in ASD.
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.
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.
The Mirror Neuron System (MNS) plays a crucial role in action perception and imitative behavior, which is suggested to be impaired in Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs).
1 wrz 2022 · The discovery of mirror neurons (MNs) in several animal species showed that multimodal information about others’ actions, emotions, sensations, and communicative messages are mapped onto the beholder’s neural substrates devoted to those first-person processes.
18 wrz 2009 · From the discovery of mirror neurons in area F5 of the monkey, two explanations, not mutually exclusive, have been proposed for the functional role of the mirror neurons in this area and in the IPL. The first was that mirror neurons underlie imitation.
Converging evidence indicates that brain abnormalities in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) involve atypical network connectivity, but it is unclear whether altered connectivity is especially prominent in brain networks that participate in social cognition.
