Humans automatically imitate other people's actions during social interactions, building rapport and closeness in the process. Although behavioral consequences neural correlates of imitation have been studied extensively, little is known about mechanisms that control imitative tendencies.

In current fMRI study, we examined belief influence...

We present a conceptual integration of two major types social perception models. First, according to categorization models, perceivers can employ processes: they either treat other people as individuals (individuation) or members groups (social categorization). Second, connectionist person is driven by single process spreading activation between mental representations in learned associative network. suggest that and individuation be conceptualized different inputs (connectionist) process....
Abstract It is widely assumed that people tend to “categorize” other people. However, the term “categorization” has been used with qualitatively different underlying definitions in person perception literature. We present a conceptual analysis which we disentangle four existing definitions: (a) categorization as representing, (b) dichotomizing, (c) organizing, and (d) grouping. Subsequently, show seemingly antagonistic viewpoints literature may be reconciled by disentangling these...
