The Imitative Mind: Development, Evolution, and Brain Bases Edited by Andrew N Cambridge University Press 0521806852 - The Imitative Mind: Development, Evolution, and Brain Bases Edited by Andrew N. Meltzoff and Wolfgang Prinz Frontmatter More information The Imitative Mind Recent scientific breakthroughs in the study of imitation at multiple levels from cell to behavior have deep implications for cognitive sci- ence, neuroscience, and evolutionary and developmental psychology. This volume provides a state-of-the-art summary of the research on im- itation in both Europe and America, including work on infants, adults, and nonhuman primates, with speculations about robotics. A special feature of this book is that it provides a concrete instance of the bur- geoning link between developmental psychology, neuroscience, and cog- nitive science. The book showcases howan in-depth, interdisciplinar y approach to imitation can illuminate long-standing problems in the brain sciences, including consciousness, self, perception-action coding, theory of mind, and intersubjectivity. The book addresses what it means to be human and howweget that way. AndrewN. Meltzoff is Professor of Psychology and Co-Director of the Center for Mind, Brain and Learning at the University of Washington. He is co-author of Words, Thoughts, and Theories (1997) and The Scientist in the Crib: What Early Learning Tells Us About The Mind (1999). Wolfgang Prinz is Director at the Max Planck Institute for Psychologi- cal Research, Munich. He has published experimental, theoretical, and historical work on perception, action, attention and consciousness. © Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 0521806852 - The Imitative Mind: Development, Evolution, and Brain Bases Edited by Andrew N.

Greenfield, University of California, Los Angeles, USA Paul Harris, Harvard University, USA. Daniel Stern, University of Geneva, Switzerland Esther Thelen, Indiana University, USA The aim of this series is to provide a scholarly forum for current theo- retical and empirical issues in cognitive and perceptual development. As the newcentury begins, the field is no longer dominated by monolithic theories. Contemporary explanations build on the combined influences of biological, cultural, contextual and ecological factors in well-defined research domains. In the field of cognitive development, cultural and situational factors are widely recognized as influencing the emergence and forms of reasoning in children. In perceptual development, the field has moved beyond the opposition of “innate” and “acquired” to sug- gest a continuous role for perception in the acquisition of knowledge. These approaches and issues will all be reflected in the series which will also address such important research themes as the indissociable link between perception and action in the developing motor system, the relationship between perceptual and cognitive development to modern ideas on the development of the brain, the significance of developmental processes themselves, dynamic systems theory and contemporary work in the psychodynamic tradition, especially as it relates to the foundations of self-knowledge.

  • Implications of Action-Oriented Paradigm Shifts in Cognitive Science
    20 Implications of Action- Oriented Paradigm Shifts in Cognitive Science Peter F. Dominey, Tony J. Prescott, Jeannette Bohg, Andreas K. Engel, Shaun Gallagher, Tobias Heed, Matej Hoffmann, Günther Knoblich, Wolfgang Prinz, and Andrew Schwartz Abstract An action-oriented perspective changes the role of an individual from a passive ob- server to an actively engaged agent interacting in a closed loop with the world as well as with others. Cognition exists to serve action within a landscape that contains both. This chapter surveys this landscape and addresses the status of the pragmatic turn. Its potential infl uence on science and the study of cognition are considered (including per- ception, social cognition, social interaction, sensorimotor entrainment, and language acquisition) and its impact on how neuroscience is studied is also investigated (with the notion that brains do not passively build models, but instead support the guidance of action). A review of its implications in robotics and engineering includes a discussion of the application of enactive control principles to couple action and perception in robotics as well as the conceptualization of system design in a more holistic, less modular manner. Practical applications that can impact the human condition are reviewed (e.g., educa- tional applications, treatment possibilities for developmental and psychopathological disorders, the development of neural prostheses). All of this foreshadows the potential societal implications of the pragmatic turn. The chapter concludes that an action-orient- ed approach emphasizes a continuum of interaction between technical aspects of cogni- tive systems and robotics, biology, psychology, the social sciences, and the humanities, where the individual is part of a grounded cultural system.

  • An Introduction to the Imitative Mind and Brain
    Cambridge University Press 0521806852 - The Imitative Mind: Development, Evolution, and Brain Bases Edited by Andrew N. Meltzoff and Wolfgang Prinz Excerpt More information An introduction to the imitative mind and brain Wolfgang Prinz and Andrew N. Meltzoff Introduction Imitation guides the behavior of a range of species. Advances in the study of imitation, from brain to behavior, have profound implications for a variety of topics including consciousness, the neural underpinnings of perception-action coding, and the origins of theory of mind. Human beings are the most imitative creatures on the planet. We create but we also imitate, and this combination provides us with a special (though perhaps not unique) cognitive-social profile. This book provides insights into the imitative mind and brain, its evolution, development, and place in adult psychology. In so doing, it addresses a longstanding puzzle about how“self” and “other” are coded withinour brains. Scope Imitation has a long and rich history. From a historical perspective, the interest in imitation is much broader than the more focused treatment we give it in the present book. For example, in the past, the term imitation has been used in a number of different ways in domains as diverse as theory of art, theology, ethology, cultural anthropology, and psychology. Platonic and Aristotelian theories, drama, the visual arts, and music were conceived as using the imitation of nature (imitatio naturae) as a princi- ple of aesthetic performance. In medieval theology, the notion of imitatio christi stood for the way man could regain resemblance with God (lost through the Fall of Man), by leading a life in humility, hardship, and poverty.

  • Modeling Self on Others: an Import Theory of Subjectivity and Selfhood*
    submitted to C & C 10/28/16 Modeling Self on Others: An Import Theory of Subjectivity and Selfhood* Wolfgang Prinz Wolfgang Prinz Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences Stephanstrasse 1 a 04103 Leipzig GERMANY Tel: 0049 341 9940-2270 mailto: [email protected] * Dedicated to the memory of Bruce Bridgeman, erudite scholar, inspiring scientist, constructive critic. 2 Abstract This paper outlines an Import Theory of subjectivity and selfhood. Import theory claims that subjectivity and selfhood are initially perceived as key features of other minds before they then become imported from other minds to own minds. Import theory builds on perception- production matching, which in turn draws on both representational mechanisms and social practices. Representational mechanisms rely on common coding of perception and production. Social practices rely on action mirroring in dyadic interactions. The interplay between mechanisms and practices gives rise to model self on others. Individuals become intentional agents in virtue of perceiving others mirroring themselves.—The outline of the theory is preceded by an introductory section that locates import theory in the broader context of competing approaches and followed by a concluding section that assesses import theory in terms of empirical evidence and explanatory power. Keywords common coding, consciousness, import theory, intentionality, other minds, perception- production matching, subjectivity, selfhood, social mirroring 3 1 Subjectivity and Selfhood 1.1 Conscious Experience 1.2 Mental Selfhood 1.2.1 Kinds of selves 1.2.2 Proper functions 1.3 Self and Others 1.3.1 Export Theory 1.3.2 Import Theory 2 Import Theory 2.1 Action Mirroring 2.1.1 Physical mirrors 2.1.2 Social mirrors 2.1.3 Modes of mirroring 2.2 Action Matching 2.2.1 Action perception 2.2.2 Perception/production matching 2.3 Empirical Evidence 3 Consciousness Demystified 3.1.1 Selfhood 3.1.2 Intersubjectivity 3.1.3 Intentionality words: 9,308 4 This paper outlines what I call an import theory of subjectivity and selfhood.

  • Theoretical Issues in Stimulus-Response Compatibility B
    Theoretical Issues in Stimulus-Response Compatibility B. Hommel and W. Prinz (Editors) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. Theoretical Issues in Stimulus-Response Compatibility: Editors' Introduction Bernhard Hommel and Wolfgang Pfinz Max-Planck4nstitut far psychologische Forschung, Miinchen It all began in the mid-1950s. Although the term stimulus-response compatibility had been coined and already introduced by Small in 1951 (see Small, 1990), the real spark for compatibility research were the now classic papers by Fitts and Seeger (1953) and Fitts and Deininger (1954). The important f'mding of Fitts and colleagues was that human performance is not only affected by characteristics of the stimulus set and the response set used in a task, but by the combination of the sets as well. In particular, performance was shown to be systematically affected by (a) whether or not a set of stimuli shares one or more features with the response set and (b) the way in which the particular stimuli and responses are mapped onto each other (cf., AUuisi & Warm, 1990; Komblum, Hasbroucq, & Osman, 1990). Since then, the effect of stimulus-response (S-R) mapping with feature-overlapping stimulus and response sets has been called the S-R compat- ibility effect. During the late 1950s and 1960s, S-R compatibility research flourished, not least due to the increasing interest in human factors and the design of man- machine interfaces (for an overview see Kantowitz, Triggs, & Barnes, 1990; Wickens, 1992). Yet, there was little interest in theorizing about compatibility phenomena, at least not over and above attempts to rephrase empirical results in the language of information theory, which was at its heyday at this time.

  • The Theory of Event Coding (TEC): a Framework for Perception and Action Planning
    BEHAVIORAL AND BRAIN SCIENCES (2001) 24, 849–937 Printed in the United States of America The Theory of Event Coding (TEC): A framework for perception and action planning Bernhard Hommel,a,b Jochen Müsseler,b Gisa Aschersleben,b and Wolfgang Prinzb aSection of Experimental and Theoretical Psychology, University of Leiden, 2300 RB Leiden, The Netherlands; bMax Planck Institute for Psychological Research, D-80799 Munich, Germany {muesseler;aschersleben;prinz}@mpipf-muenchen.mpg.de www.mpipf-muenchen.mpg.de/~prinz [email protected] Abstract: Traditional approaches to human information processing tend to deal with perception and action planning in isolation, so that an adequate account of the perception-action interface is still missing. On the perceptual side, the dominant cognitive view largely un- derestimates, and thus fails to account for, the impact of action-related processes on both the processing of perceptual information and on perceptual learning. On the action side, most approaches conceive of action planning as a mere continuation of stimulus processing, thus failing to account for the goal-directedness of even the simplest reaction in an experimental task. We propose a new framework for a more adequate theoretical treatment of perception and action planning, in which perceptual contents and action plans are coded in a common representational medium by feature codes with distal reference. Perceived events (perceptions) and to-be-produced events (actions) are equally represented by integrated, task-tuned networks of feature codes – cognitive structures we call event codes. We give an overview of evidence from a wide variety of empirical domains, such as spatial stimulus-response compatibility, sensorimotor syn- chronization, and ideomotor action, showing that our main assumptions are well supported by the data.

In 2004, it was still a merger on paper, but in 2005 it turned into reality. The Munich group, headed by Wolfgang Prinz, moved to Leipzig and resumed its work at the Institute. A number of exciting new collaborations are starting. Research at the centre addresses human cognitive and brain processes with particular emphasis on language, music, action and executive functions. During the period covered by this report – 2004/2005 – research has been flourishing at both places, Leipzig and Munich, and is now flourishing even more after the Munich branch has moved to Leipzig. The new Leipzig centre provides unique conditions for joint interdisciplin- ary research into the behavioral and neurobiological bases of human cognition. The merger is the first link in a chain of major changes and extensions we anticipate to see in the near future. Most importantly, we will soon be implementing two novel departments, one in Imaging Science and another one in Behavioral Cognitive Science.

Réka Szemerkényi, Ambassador of Hungary to the United States of America Zoltán Balog, Minister of Human Capacities, Ministry of Human Capacities, Hungary László Palkovics, Minister of State for Education, Ministry of Human Capacities, Hungary Dear Ambassador Szemerkényi, Minister Balog, and Minister Palkovics, We are writing to express our dismay about the proposed legislation that would effectively end a 25-year history of scientific excellence in Budapest. As an international body of psychologists, neuroscientists, and cognitive scientists, we can tell you that our colleagues at Central European University are among the most respected in the world. Their intellectual legacy has had a global impact. We believe any city should count itself fortunate to have such a renowned center of academic excellence in its midst. The proposed legislation will make it effectively impossible for CEU to continue to occupy its current position as one of the foremost scientific institutions internationally. We respectfully ask that you preserve CEU’s ability to act as a center of leadership and innovation in Hungary and the world by withdrawing this legislation.
