The mirror neuron system has dominated understanding of observational learning from a cognitive neuroscience perspective. Our review highlights the value of observational learning frameworks that integrate a more diverse and distributed set of cognitive and brain systems, including those implicated in sensorimotor transformations, as well as in more general processes such as executive control, reward, and social cognition. We argue that understanding how observational learning occurs in the real world will require neuroscientific frameworks that consider how visuomotor processes interface with more general aspects of cognition, as well as how learning context and action complexity shape mechanisms supporting learning from watching others.
从认知神经科学的角度来看，镜像神经元系统主导了对观察性学习的理解。我们的综述强调了观察性学习框架的价值，这些框架整合了更多样化和分布式的认知与大脑系统，包括那些涉及感觉运动转换以及执行控制、奖励和社会认知等更一般过程的系统。我们认为，要理解观察性学习在现实世界中是如何发生的，将需要神经科学框架来考虑视觉运动过程如何与认知的更一般方面相互作用，以及学习情境和动作复杂性如何塑造支持从观察他人中学习的机制。
