DOI: 10.1016/j.nlm.2018.07.010
Abstract: &NA; Several studies have examined a role for the prelimbic cortex (PL) and infralimbic cortex (IL) in free operant behavior. The general conclusion has been that PL controls goal‐directed actions (instrumental behaviors that are sensitive… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41593-020-0693-8
Abstract: The role of the hippocampus in goal-directed action is currently unclear; studies investigating this issue have produced contradictory results. Here we reconcile these contradictions by demonstrating that, in rats, goal-directed action relies on the dorsal… read more here.

Learning for Goal-Directed Actions Using RNNPB: Developmental Change of “What to Imitate”
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "IEEE Transactions on Cognitive and Developmental Systems"
DOI: 10.1109/tcds.2017.2679765
Abstract: “What to imitate” is one of the most important and difficult issues in robot imitation learning. A possible solution from an engineering approach involves focusing on the salient properties of actions. We investigate the developmental… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cogs.13180
Abstract: Theories of grounded and embodied cognition offer a range of accounts of how reasoning and body-based processes are related to each other. To advance theories of grounded and embodied cognition, we explore the cognitive relevance… read more here.

How infant-directed actions enhance infants' attention, learning, and exploration: Evidence from EEG and computational modeling.

DOI: 10.1111/desc.13259
Abstract: When teaching infants new actions, parents tend to modify their movements. Infants prefer these infant-directed actions (IDAs) over adult-directed actions and learn well from them. Yet, it remains unclear how parents' action modulations capture infants'… read more here.

The relevance of moral norms in distinct relational contexts: Purity versus harm norms regulate self-directed actions
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "PLoS ONE"
DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0173405
Abstract: Recent efforts to partition the space of morality have focused on the descriptive content of distinct moral domains (e.g., harm versus purity), or alternatively, the relationship between the perpetrator and victim of moral violations. Across… read more here.

Habitual Behavior Is Mediated by a Shift in Response-Outcome Encoding by Infralimbic Cortex

DOI: 10.1523/eneuro.0337-17.2017
Abstract: Abstract The ability to flexibly switch between goal-directed actions and habits is critical for adaptive behavior. The infralimbic prefrontal cortex (IfL-C) has been consistently identified as a crucial structure for the regulation of response strategies.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2023.1140731
Abstract: Many symptoms of the autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are evident in early infancy, but ASD is usually diagnosed much later by procedures lacking objective measurements. It is necessary to anticipate the identification of ASD by… read more here.
