“…The pattern of responses may depend to some extent on the type of actions used: irrational, implausible or unusual actions generally produce greater responses in mentalizing areas (Liepelt, Von Cramon, & Brass, 2008;Marsh, Mullett, Ropar, & Hamilton, 2014), but de Lange and colleagues (2008) found that unusual actions produced greater response in mirror areas. Note however that even in that study, when participants were asked to judge intentions, greater response was found in mentalizing areas; and even actions which are not implausible tend to produce responses in mentalizing, as well as mirror, areas when participants are asked to judge intentions (Becchio et al, 2012;Ciaramidaro, Becchio, Colle, Bara, & Walter, 2014). Lieberman and colleagues suggest that mirror areas are involved in perceiving what is being done, and the way in which an action is performed (action perception; see section 3.2), whereas mentalizing areas are involved when inferring why an action is being performed (intention understanding; Spunt et al, 2010Spunt et al, , 2011Spunt & Lieberman, 2012).…”
