People have a tendency to unconsciously mimic other's actions. This mimicry has been regarded as a prosocial response which increases social affiliation. Previous research on social priming of mimicry demonstrated an assimilative relationship between... Read More about Understanding the role of the ‘self’ in the social priming of mimicry.

Improved spontaneous object recognition following spaced preexposure trials: evidence for an associative account of recognition memory (2013)
Journal Article

Rodents' biased exploration of a novel object over a familiar object is taken as an indication of recognition memory. According to a general associative model of memory, the biased exploration is a consequence of reduced processing of the familiar ob...
