Abstract
No need to match: a comment on Bach, Nicholson and Hudson's "Affordance-Matching Hypothesis".
Highlights
Mirror neurons and canonical neurons are two classes of visuomotor neurons that are activated by different visual stimuli (Rizzolatti and Kalaska, 2012)
The generated action hypothesis based on an object affordance would be confirmed by the mirror neuron system
We suggest that enactivist approaches provide a less problematic framework for studying action understanding
Summary
Mirror neurons and canonical neurons are two classes of visuomotor neurons that are activated by different visual stimuli (Rizzolatti and Kalaska, 2012). The generated action hypothesis based on an object affordance would be confirmed by the mirror neuron system.
