Ramachandran (2011) - without abilities such as understanding emotion and intention we couldn’t live in large groups with complex social roles
Cheung (2009) - females have a more sensitive mirror neuron system
Daspratto (2006) - Ps with autism showed less activity in the inferior frontal gyrus, a brain area associated with mirror neurones
Churchland (2011) - a mirror neurone is just a neurone
Reductionist - the idea social cognition is just about MN’s is reductionist. MN’s are a biological substrate for social cognition (necessary but not sufficient)
