Adults use behavioral mimicry to blend in with (or stand out from) their social environment. Adopting another's mannerisms and behaviors, or "mimicking", communicates liking and similarity between interaction partners and has been shown to serve as an implicit affiliation...

J Genet Psychol. 1999 Mar;160(1):69-83. doi: 10.1080/00221329909595381.

The authors investigated the relationship between children's ability to take the social perspective of another and their use of the causal attribution principle known as discounting in assessing others' kindness in helping. The participants (N = 153), 7 to...

Automatic imitation effects are influenced by experience of synchronous action in children.

Journal of experimental child psychology

O'Sullivan EP, Bijvoet-van den Berg S, Caldwell CA.
PMID: 29571028
J Exp Child Psychol. 2018 Jul;171:113-130. doi: 10.1016/j.jecp.2018.01.013.

By their fourth year of life, children are expert imitators, but it is unclear how this ability develops. One approach suggests that certain types of experience might forge associations between the sensory and motor representations of an action that...

A comparison of positive vicarious learning and verbal information for reducing vicariously learned fear.

Cognition & emotion

Reynolds G, Wasely D, Dunne G, Askew C.
PMID: 29046112

Research with children has demonstrated that both positive vicarious learning (modelling) and positive verbal information can reduce children's acquired fear responses for a particular stimulus. However, this fear reduction appears to be more effective when the intervention pathway matches...

Teacher-learner interaction quantifies scaffolding behaviour in imitation learning.

Scientific reports

Okazaki S, Muraoka Y, Osu R.
PMID: 31101874
Sci Rep. 2019 May 17;9(1):7543. doi: 10.1038/s41598-019-44049-x.

Teachers often believe that they take into account learners' ongoing learning progress in their teaching. Can behavioural data support this belief? To address this question, we investigated the interactive behavioural coordination between teachers and learners during imitation learning to...

Neonatal imitation is widely accepted as fact and cited as evidence of an inborn mirror neuron system that underpins human social behaviour, even though its existence has been debated for decades. The possibility that newborns do not imitate was...

Socrates (in the Meno) denied that virtues like courage could be taught, whereas Protagoras defended this claim. Compassion is discussed below in this context; it is distinguished from related, but different, moral qualities, and the role of imagination is...

Dev Sci. 2009 Apr;12(3):F1-8. doi: 10.1111/j.1467-7687.2008.00820.x.

Human beings are intensely social creatures and, as such, devote significant time and energy to creating and maintaining affiliative bonds with group members. Nevertheless, social relations sometimes collapse and individuals experience exclusion from the group. Fortunately for adults, they...
