On the following @OSFramework page, we provide tutorials, codes, and analysis scripts to make the implementation of the online version of the imitation-inhibition task as easy as possible:

Mareike Westfal recently developed and validated an online version of the imitation-inhibition task. This allows even researcher with few programming experiences to assess imitative behavior online. Together with @JanCrusius @CraccoEmiel .

@_lindseypowell and Piotr Winkielman take a third-person perspective on imitation and review literature on the inferences people draw from observing others imitating each other.

@salazarkaempf and Cornelia Exner summarize existing studies on mimicry and akin phenomena in psychotherapy and related contexts (like counseling).

From live interactions to controlled methods in the lab and from virtual reality to observation studies: @PaulaWicher, @PsychFarmer, and @antoniahamilton discuss various approaches to studying the consequences of being imitated.

Wojciech Kulesza and Tanya Chartrand review research on imitation as a nonconsciously employed mechanism by focusing on the consequences of mimicry. Thereby, positive as well as negative consequences of automatic imitation are discussed.

@BEAM_Manchester and @AutismAtMCR review investigations of automatic imitation in clinical populations. IFor many of the conditions reviewed, there are relatively small numbers of published studies that often include relatively small participant numbers.

In our chapter, @CraccoEmieland I review evidence in favor and against social modulation of imitative behavior by explaining why some, but not other factors influence imitation.

@CraccoEmiel summarizes recent research on automatic imitation of multiple agents. This research indicates that imitation is simultaneously informed by the different agents in our surrounding.

Sumeet Farwaha and Virginia Slaughter provide a critical review of research on automatic imitation in infants and children with a view to stimulating developmental research on the topic.
