The contribution of eye gaze and movement kinematics to the expression and identification of social intention in object-directed motor actions
The intention to include another person in an interaction (i.e., social intention) is known to influence the spatio-temporal characteristics of motor...

Failing to attend versus failing to stop: Single-trial decomposition of action-stopping in the stop signal task
The capacity to stop impending or ongoing actions contributes to executive control over behavior. Action-stopping, however, is difficult to directly...

What first drives visual attention during the recognition of object-directed actions? The role of kinematics and goal information
The recognition of others’ object-directed actions is known to involve the decoding of both the visual kinematics of the action and the action goal....

Motor Signature Differences Between Autism Spectrum Disorder and Developmental Coordination Disorder, and Their Neural Mechanisms
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) are distinct clinical groups with overlapping motor features. We...

Tradeoffs of estimating reaction time with absolute and relative thresholds
Measuring the duration of cognitive processing with reaction time is fundamental to several subfields of psychology. Many methods exist for...

Forward effects from action observation: the role of attentional focus
After viewing an image representing an action on an object, we recognize the forward states of the seen action faster than the backward states. The...
-
Coupling perception to action through incidental sensory consequences of motor behaviour
Researchers in the field of active perception study how sensory processes coalesce with motor actions to extract information from the world. Such...

Sensorimotor processing is dependent on observed speed during the observation of hand–hand and hand–object interactions
Observing a physical interaction between individuals (e.g., observing friends shaking hands) or between an object and an individual (e.g., observing...

The role of implicit motor simulation on action verb memory
Observation is known to improve memory for action. Previous findings linked such an effect with an easier relation processing of action components...

Investigating how Explicit Contextual Cues Affect Predictive Sensorimotor Control in Autistic Adults
Research suggests that sensorimotor difficulties in autism could be reduced by providing individuals with explicit contextual information. To test...

The information variables for controlling manual transfer of liquid-filled containers
It is a familiar but challenging task to manually transfer a liquid-filled container without spilling. The action requires stringent control because...
