How imitators represent the imitated: The vital experiments
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 21 (5):707-708 (1998)
Abstract
Byrne & Russon rightly draw attention to complex and neglected aspects of ape imitation. However, program-level imitation as a single, absolute category may mislead us in understanding abstractions involved in imitation. Designing the right experiments will offer clarity. One recent experiment has shown imitation of sequential structure: What is needed to test other components of what the authors propose?My notes
