| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The objectives of this study are (1) to identify the activation of the Mirror Neuron System (MNS) in healthy adults using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), and (2) to clarify the relationship between MNS activation and attentional function and mood. The results identified regions of the prefrontal cortex that are activated during both action execution task and action observation task. Thus, it was demonstrated that fNIRS can provide a quantitative evaluation of certain aspects of MNS. Additionally, during action observation task, there was a negative correlation between these brain regions and several mood assessment items. This suggests a potential involvement of MNS activation in mood regulation.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究の成果は、リハビリテーション場面におけるfNIRSを用いたMNS賦活の評価・訓練法の提案に繋がる可能性がある。また、MNSの賦活と気分との関係が明らかになったことは、対象者の気分状態も鑑みた運用に結び付く点で意義があると言える。
