Empirical findings from various research fields indicate that cognitive and motor processes are far less dissimilar than previously thought. The present chapter takes a neuroscientific perspective and offers evidence for similarities between cognition and action focusing on three key players of the classical motor system: the primary motor cortex, the cerebellum, and the premotor cortex. Briefly, although movement execution is apparently supported in part by the same cerebral resources engaged in cognitive processes, the three brain regions reviewed here are differentially engaged in more or less action-bound cognitive processes.
来自各个研究领域的实证研究结果表明，认知过程和运动过程之间的差异远没有之前认为的那么大。本章从神经科学的角度出发，提供认知与行动之间存在相似性的证据，重点关注经典运动系统的三个关键组成部分：初级运动皮层、小脑和运动前区皮层。简而言之，虽然运动执行显然部分由参与认知过程的相同大脑资源所支持，但这里所探讨的三个脑区在或多或少与行动相关的认知过程中发挥着不同的作用。
