Instead there must be a hardwired mechanism in the child ' s brain for mapping the mother ' s visual appearance ? whether it be a tongue sticking out or a smile ? onto the motor command neurons 所以小孩的腦子里一定有個內建的機制,將母親的視覺外觀(不管是伸舌頭或微笑)投射到運動控制神經元。
What surprised rizzolatti and his co - workers was that a subset of the motor command neurons also fired when the monkey watched another monkey or a researcher perform the same action 但讓里佐拉蒂和同事吃驚的是,當這只獼猴看到其他獼猴或研究人員展現同樣的動作,運動控制神經元里的某群細胞也活化了起來。
百科解釋
A command neuron is a single neuron (or small set of neurons) whose stimulation results in the evocation of an endogenous, specific, naturally occurring behavior pattern (Carew, 2000). Command neurons act as neural decision making cells; push buttons that can trigger a complete, coordinated behavioral act and are often the sole determinant of whether an action is performed or not.
