This study investigates whether pupil size reflects physical effort or motor fatigability during sustained repetitive movement and finds that it reflects effort but not fatigability.

This study shows reward reduces motor slowing during repetitive wrist tapping by increasing movement vigor, as indicated by higher muscle activity and sustained pupil dilation.

This paper conducts a meta-analysis of fMRI studies on automatic imitation control, finding consistent activation in the multiple demand network and limited evidence for the theory-of-mind network.

This study investigates the relationship between prosocial priming, imitation, and perspective taking, finding no effect of prosocial primes on imitation and issues with the reliability of the Directors Task for measuring perspective taking.

The paper investigates how observing action sequences shapes neural representations in frontoparietal brain regions through fMRI and observational practice.

This study uses fMRI repetition suppression to test if face perception and theory-of-mind networks show sensitivity to trait judgments from faces, but finds no evidence of such sensitivity.
