Observation of human actions influences the observer’s own motor system, termed visuomotor priming, and is believed to be caused by automatic activation of mirror neurons. Evidence suggests that priming effects are larger for biological (human) as op... Read More about Exploring visuomotor priming following biological and non-biological stimuli.

Does Parkinson’s disease affect judgement about another person’s action? (2010)
Journal Article
person’s action?. Experimental Brain Research, 204(3), 327-331. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00221-009-1976-1

The observer’s motor system has been shown to be involved in observing the actions of another person. Recent findings suggest that people with Parkinson’s disease do not show the same motor facilitatory effects when observing the actions of another p...
