在本文中，我们提出了一组理解意图的机制的理论和实验证据。我们提出意图的理解涉及三个基本方面。首先要考虑的是意图识别，即我们识别他人意图并区分不同类型的过程。第二个方面涉及意图归属于其作者：共享神经表征的存在为我们如何识别他人的意图（他们正在做什么）提供了一个简洁的解释，但其本身并不足以确定代理是谁。一旦代理人的意图被认可并归因于代理人，就应考虑该意图的原因和目的。因此，第三个方面涉及激励执行某种行动的目的意图。我们讨论了这三个理论方面的神经基础，提出了概念综合。 (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc. 保留所有权利。
In this paper we present theoretical and experimental evidence for a set of mechanisms by which intention is understood. We propose that three basic aspects are involved in the understanding of intention. The first aspect to consider is intention recognition, i.e., the process by which we recognize other people's intentions, distinguishing among different types. The second aspect concerns the attribution of intention to its author: the existence of shared neural representations provides a parsimonious explanation of how we recognize other people's intentions (what they are doing), but in and of itself, is not sufficient to determine who the agent is. Once the intention has been recognized and attributed to an agent, the reasons for, and the aim of, the intention are to be considered. Hence, the third aspect concerns the aim-intention motivating the execution of a certain action. We discuss the neural basis of these three theoretical aspects suggesting a conceptual synthesis.
