Against the theoretical background of Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, the present international cooperation project focuses on a (deferred) imitation study in 36-month-old children with both synchronous EEG and Motion Capturing acquisition. The study will allow, for the first time, a combined examination of the brain activity of child and caregiver in a moment-bymoment analysis within (deferred) imitation paradigms. Movement information (MoCap) of specific actions (head turns, arm movements) during the parent-child interaction will be intertwined with EEG information (cortical source analyses; independent component analysis), resulting in qualitatively new evidence within (deferred) imitation research. Next to the proposed study, the training on synchronous EEG and MoCap will enable me to critically evaluate the benefits of jointly using EEG and MoCap in imitation research from a state-ofthe- art point of view. On the basis of this knowledge, I am planning to apply for a German Research Foundation grant combining synchronous EEG/MoCap technologies with current Eye-Tracking and (Deferred) Imitation studies within the Cognitive Development Lab at my home institution.

本国际合作项目以发展认知神经科学为理论背景，对36个月龄儿童进行同步脑电和动作捕捉的（延迟）模仿研究。这项研究将首次允许在（延迟）模仿范式内对儿童和照顾者的大脑活动进行逐时分析。运动信息（MoCap）的具体行动（头部转动，手臂运动）在亲子互动将交织在一起的EEG信息（皮层源分析，独立成分分析），从而在（延迟）模仿研究的新证据。除了拟议的研究之外，同步EEG和MoCap的培训将使我能够从最先进的角度批判性地评估在模仿研究中联合使用EEG和MoCap的好处。基于这些知识，我计划申请德国研究基金会的资助，将同步EEG/MoCap技术与我所在机构认知发展实验室内的当前眼动跟踪和（延迟）模仿研究相结合。
