Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mirror neurons are specialized cells in the brain that fire both when an individual performs a specific action and when they observe another individual performing that same action. This activation has been linked to observational learning, as individuals are able to mimic behaviors they have observed in others. Therefore, mirror neurons are likely most useful in supporting observational learning.
