 Mirror Neurons - Philosophy Dictionary of Arguments
 
Mirror neurons: Mirror neurons are a type of brain cell that respond both when an individual performs an action and when they observe the same action performed by someone else. They are thought to play a role in understanding others' actions, intentions, and emotions, potentially underlying abilities like empathy and social learning. Their exact functions in humans are still being studied. See also Understanding, Actions, Behavior, Intersubjectivity, Other minds, Theory of Mind.
