Automatic imitation.
  • C. Heyes
  • Psychology, Biology
    Psychological bulletin
  • 2011
TLDR
It is revealed that automatic imitation is a covert form of imitation, distinct from spatial compatibility, and is a new behavioral phenomenon, comparable with the Stroop and Simon effects, providing strong evidence that even healthy adult humans are prone, in an unwilled and unreasoned way, to copy the actions of others.

  • 1 March 2014

This article takes a close look at the strongest evidence of implicit mentalizing in adults, which suggests that people automatically represent what others see, intend, and believe, and suggests that the same domain-general processes can provide a fast and efficient alternative tomentalizing in everyday life.

What's social about social learning?
  • C. Heyes
  • Biology, Psychology
    Journal of comparative psychology
  • 1 May 2012
TLDR
It is argued that social and asocial learning depend on the same basic learning mechanisms; these are adapted for the detection of predictive relationships in all natural domains; and they are associative mechanisms--processes that encode information for long-term storage by forging excitatory and inhibitory links between event representations.
