1 sty 2013 · * A systematic review of neuroscientific studies of mirror neuron systems in autism. * Data is mixed with no overall evidence of abnormal mirror responses. * It is time to move on from the broken mirror theory of autism. * Social top-down modulation of mirror systems is a critical factor in autism.
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.
10 sty 2023 · Mirror neurons were first discovered with electrophysiological studies of monkeys when neurons within the inferior premotor regions were found to respond both to the monkey performing an action as well as observing a similar goal-directed action (di Pellegrino et al. 1992).
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.
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). In this review, we discuss the plausibility and empirical evidence of a neural ...
20 mar 2021 · MNN connectivity and its relation to social attributes, such as autistic traits have not been thoroughly examined. This study aimed to investigate functional connectivity in the MNN and assess relationship between MNN connectivity and subclinical autistic traits in neurotypical adults.
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.
