How is it that thoroughly physical material beings such as ourselves can think, dream, feel,
create and understand ideas, theories and concepts? How does mere matter give rise to all …

This article provides an update of the Theory of Event Coding (TEC), which claims that
perception and action are identical processes operating on the same codes–event files …

Commonsense and theorizing about action control agree in assuming that human behavior
is (mainly) driven by goals, but no mechanistic theory of what goals are, where they come …

When humans perceive a sensation, their brains integrate inputs from sensory receptors and
process them based on their expectations. The mechanisms of this predictive coding in the …

Overt and imagined action seem inextricably linked. Both have similar timing, activate
shared brain circuits, and motor imagery influences overt action and vice versa. Motor …

The concept of embodied cognition attracts enormous interest but neither is the concept
particularly well-defined nor is the related research guided by systematic theorizing. To …

How do humans learn from raw sensory experience? Throughout life, but most obviously in
infancy, we learn without explicit instruction. We propose a detailed biological mechanism …

Teamwork is best achieved when members of the team understand one another. Human–
robot collaboration poses a particular challenge to this goal due to the differences between …
